Purpose

BBVA's strategy revolves around a single Purpose: "Support your drive to go further". A renewed Purpose in which the customer

is the clear protagonist. BBVA wants to be the bank that not only supports individuals and businesses during key moments, but

also empowers them to achieve their goals and make their projects a reality.

image30.jpg

Its meaning is expressed through three key ideas:

shape-f029fb36be5d30f4.gif

image29.jpg

This is BBVA’s vocation.

Always being by its

customers’ side, especially

when they need it most. It

involves listening,

understanding, and adapting

to their needs, identifying

with them, sharing their

concerns, projects, and

dreams, with empathy and

constant support, to be a

true ally on their journey who

genuinely understands what

they need.

Embodies the spirit of

progress and innovation.

BBVA knows the path and

projects its customers toward

the future. It is an attitude

that is part of BBVA’s DNA,

always seeking to anticipate,

see today what will come

tomorrow, and look to the

future with optimism, sharing

the ambitions of customers

and helping them turn their

dreams into reality.

Represents the dreams,

hopes, and ambitions of

customers. BBVA recognizes

that behind every project,

every goal, and every step

forward, there is something

deeper: willpower. It is the

inner strength that drives

individuals and companies to

improve, pursue their

objectives, and believe in a

better future. It’s the

determination to keep moving

forward and the motivation

fueling them every day.

| p.12 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  1. Introduction | | --- | --- |

This Purpose represents the future of BBVA to be built in this 2025–2029 strategic cycle. It inspires the way we work and the

culture of the Group, and it aligns the entire organization to build trustful relationships and generate a positive impact on

customers and society.

Values

The Group is grounded in strong Values, which form the foundation of its culture and serve as a guide for decision-making and the

expected behavior across the entire organization. These Values have been instrumental to the success of BBVA’s strategy and will

continue to be a key management lever in the new strategic cycle. The Values remain fully in force in this new stage as a hallmark

of the BBVA team; however, behaviors take on renewed meaning in this context, including the nuances of radically incorporating

the client’s perspective.

1.2.Executive summary

Articles  438 b), 447 CRR

The entry into force of Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 (commonly referred to as ‘CRR3’) on January 1, 2025 brought about

substantial changes in the calculation of minimum capital requirements. The impact of these changes on the Group's CET1 ratio

was not significant at that date.

The strength of the BBVA Group's earnings has contributed to achieving a consolidated CET1 ratio of 12.70% as of December 31,

2025, which allows it to maintain a large management buffer over the Group's CET1 requirement as of that date (9.29%1), which is

also above the Group's target management range of 11.5 - 12.0% CET1.

The CET1 ratios path at the end of each quarter since December 31, 2024 is presented below:

image18.jpg

The CET1 ratio decreased by -18 basis points, mainly explained by the impact of -105 basis points from the extraordinary share

buyback program (SBB).

Among the recurring impacts, there has been a great generation of earnings in the year (+265 basis points) which, net of

shareholder remuneration and payment of contingent convertible instrument coupons (CoCos), generated a positive contribution

of +122 basis points.

Meanwhile, the growth in risk-weighted assets (RWA) derived from the organic growth of the business in constant terms, mainly as

a result of the increase in the loan portfolio, and, to a lesser extent, debt securities, partially offset by a risk transfer initiatives

drained the ratio by -152 basis points.

Finally, the other elements that make up CET1 had a positive contribution of +61 basis points; these include the calculation of

minority interests and the positive impact in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) equivalent to the net monetary position value

loss in hyperinflationary economies, as well as the portfolio recorded in fair value through other comprehensive income

(corresponding to assets classified as Held to Collect and Sell) HTC&S. In addition, the negative effects of market evolution are

also included, particularly the variation of the foreign exchange, mainly represented by the variation of Turkish lira and, to a lesser

extent, the Mexican peso, partially offset by the depreciation of US dollar, throughout the year.

2 Considering the official update of the countercyclical capital buffer, calculated on the basis of exposure as of December 31, 2025.

| p.16 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  1. Introduction | | --- | --- |

The evolution of CET1 ratio during the year 2025 is below:

image6.jpg

As of December 31, 2025 there is no difference between fully loaded and phased in ratios given that the impact associated with the

transitional provisions is zero.

Following the latest SREP (Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process) decision, the ECB has informed the Group that, effective

on January 1, 2026, BBVA Group must maintain at consolidated level a total capital ratio of 13.13%2 and a CET1 capital ratio of

8.98%2, including a Pillar 2 requirement at consolidated level of 1.62% (a minimum of 0.96% must be satisfied with CET1), of

which 0.12% is determined on the basis of the ECB's prudential provisioning expectations, and must be satisfied by CET1.

With respect to liquidity metrics, the BBVA Group maintains a solid liquidity position in every geographical area in which it

operates, with ratios well above the minimum required:

–The BBVA Group's liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) remained comfortably above 100% throughout the year 2025, the

average ratio stood at 140%. For the calculation of this ratio, it is assumed that there is no transfer of liquidity among

subsidiaries; i.e. no type of excess liquidity levels in foreign subsidiaries is being considered in the calculation of the

consolidated ratio. When considering these excess liquidity levels, the average BBVA Group's LCR would stand at 167%.

–The net stable funding ratio (NSFR), defined as the result between the amount of stable funding available and the amount

of stable funding required, demands banks to maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of their

assets and off-balance sheet activities. This ratio should be at least 100% at all times. The BBVA Group's NSFR ratio,

stood at 126% as of December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, the breakdown of the point-in-time ratios in the main Liquidity Management Units (“hereinafter, LMU”)

of the Group is shown below:

| p.17 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  1. Introduction | | --- | --- |

image11.jpg

As for the leverage ratio, as of December 31, 2025, the ratio stood at 6.15%, above the minimum required ratio of 3.00 %.

The ratios as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025 are shown below:

3 Including combined buffer requirement (CBR). 3.97% as of December 31, 2025.

| p.18 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  1. Introduction | | --- | --- |

With respect to MREL, as of December 31, 2025, both the RWA and Leverage ratios (LR) were at 28.89% and 10.21%, respectively.

Both comfortably above their respective requirements (27.10%3 and 8.59%).

These data are shown below, separating the excess:

2.2.Regulatory framework and developments

2.2.1. Applicable regulatory framework

As a Spanish credit institution, BBVA is subject to Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council dated June

26, 2013, on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms

("CRD IV”), mainly amended by Directive 2019/878/EU (“CRD V”) and Directive (EU) 2024/1619 (“CRD VI”), which applies

effectively since January 2025.

The major regulation governing the solvency of credit institutions is (EU) Regulation No. 575/2013 of the European Parliament and

of the Council of June 26, 2013, on the prudential requirements for credit  institutions and investment firms amending (EU)

Regulation No 648/2012 ("CRR" and in conjunction with CRD IV and any implementing measures of CRD IV), which is

complemented by several binding Regulatory Technical Standards that are directly applicable to all EU member states, without the

need to implement national measures. This Regulation was mainly amended by Regulation 2019/876/EU (“CRR2”) and Regulation

2024/1623/EU (“CRR3” or “CRR III”).

The CRD IV Directive was transposed to Spanish national law by means of the Royal Decree-Law 14/2013, of November 29 (“RD-L

14/2013”), Law 10/2014 of June 26, Royal Decree 84/2015, of February 13 (“RD 84/2015”), Bank of Spain Circular 2/2014 of

January 31 and Circular 2/2016 of February 2 (“Bank of Spain Circular 2/2016”), which has been amended by Circular 3/2022 of

March, 30.

During 2021, Directive 2019/878 was transposed into the Spanish legal system through the publication of Royal Decree-Law

7/2021, of April 27 (amending Law 10/2014), Royal Decree 970/2021, of November 8 (which modifies RDL 84/2015) and Circular

5/2021, of September 22 (which modifies Circular 2/2016).

In the Macroprudential field, Royal Decree 102/2019 was published in March 2019, establishing the Macroprudential Authority of

the Financial Stability Board, establishing its legal regime. The aforementioned Royal Decree also develops certain aspects related

to the macroprudential tools contained in Royal Decree-Law 22/2018. Among them, it provides that the Bank of Spain may adopt

measures such as the countercyclical buffer for a given sector, sectoral limits on the concentration of exposures or the

establishment of limits and conditions on the granting of loans and other operations. These measures are developed in Bank of

Spain Circular 5/2021, of September 22.

In addition to the regulation on the prudential supervision of institutions, Directive 2014/59/EU ("BRRD") was approved in 2014,

which establishes a framework for the restructuring and resolution of credit institutions, making it mandatory for institutions to

have an adequate funding structure to absorb losses.

The aforementioned Directive was integrated into the Spanish legal system through its transposition by Law 11/2015, of June 18,

and its main amendment was made by Directive 2019/879 ("BRRD2"), which was subsequently incorporated into Spanish law by

Royal Decree-Law 7/2021, of April 27.

Section 2.3 of this chapter includes the specific regulations governing the information requirements of the Prudential Relevance

Report (Pillar 3).

2.2.2. Regulatory developments in 2025

2025 has been a period of regulatory transition and consolidation, both in the European Union and globally. Europe has been

focused on implementing previous regulations and on a new political cycle that is aiming for economic growth and

competitiveness through regulatory simplification. This year has been key for the final implementation of the Basel III reforms, with

the entry into force of CRR III and the revised GL/RTS by the European Banking Authority (hereinafter, EBA). In addition,

digitization remains a priority with a strong focus on crypto-assets and Artificial Intelligence with proposals such as the Digital

Omnibus, which affects various regulations on data, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and digital identity. In ESG regulation, the

work on the Omnibus regulatory simplification package stands out. Additionally, 2025 was crucial for the operational launch of the

new Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Authority (hereinafter, AMLA) and for financial institutions to begin

the transformation necessary to comply with the ambitious legal framework against money laundering.

Prudential framework

In the prudential sphere, the most notable development in 2025 was the implementation of the global framework of post-crisis

Basel III reforms in Europe. With regard to this implementation, most of the provisions of the banking package, entered into force

on January 1, 2025, containing the reform of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR III) and the Capital Requirements Directive

(CRD VI), published on June 9, 2024. However, the provisions relating to the new market risk framework (FRTB) have been

postponed until January 2027. As for CRD VI, European Union (hereinafter EU) member states have 18 months to transpose the

Directive into their national legislation (expiring in January 2026) and, once this transposition is complete, CRD VI will enter into

force the following day.

Of the 140 mandates granted to the EBA by CRR III and CRD VI, progress has been made in various technical developments during

2025: final versions of both guidelines and Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) and Implementing Technical Standards (ITS)

have been published. Some of the most relevant ones include those relating to credit risk (e.g., the RTS on credit conversion

factors for off-balance sheet exposures or the Guidelines on exposures to real estate purchases, construction, and development

(ADC)), operational risk (RTS on loss taxonomy and RTS on business indicator components), as well as on ESG management and

crypto-assets (RTS on the transitional prudential treatment introduced in CRR III for these exposures). For its part, the EBA Guide

on ESG scenario analysis, initially scheduled for January 2026, has been published as final, delaying its application until January

  1. Lastly, the EBA also published various consultations (Guidelines on the definition of default, Guidelines on internal

governance, RTS on material changes to internal models, etc.), for which the final text is expected in 2026.

With regard to Level 1 legislative proposals, the reform of the securitization framework was presented by the European

Commission (hereinafter EC) in June 2025 and is currently under negotiation, while the legislative proposal on the permanent

capital treatment of exposures to crypto-assets, scheduled for the first half of 2025, has not yet been published.

At an international level, the implementation of the disclosure and prudential treatment framework for exposures related to

crypto-assets is still pending. It will come into force in January 2026 following its publication by the Base Committee on Banking

Supervision (hereinafter BCBS) in July 2024. In addition, in April 2025, the BCBS published guidelines with revised principles for

credit risk management.

Meanwhile, in 2025, in the EU, more work related to prudential arena is expected, in this case by the European Central Bank

(hereinafter ECB): updating the Internal Models Guide to include adjustments on market risk, credit risk, and counterparty risk, as

well as a new section on machine learning; and the revision of the Guide to Options and Discretion, which details how it will exercise

the supervisory powers granted to it by CRR III on certain issues.

Finally, in Spain, work continues to complete the transposition of CRD VI (the deadline is January 2026, as indicated above).

ESG

In the area of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance), and at a global level, the publication in June 2025 by the BCBS of the

final version of its framework for the disclosure of climate-related financial risks stands out.

In February 2025, the Commission announced the Omnibus regulatory simplification package on Environmental, Social, and

Governance (ESG) issues, which includes the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the Corporate Sustainability

Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), the Taxonomy Regulation, and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Regulation (CBAM).

The main changes proposed are a reduction in the number of companies affected, a postponement of reporting deadlines and

entry into force, and a reduction in the data reporting.

The postponement of maturities or “Stop the Clock” was approved in April and published in the Official Journal of the European

Union (OJEU) and the Simplification Directive, which affects the content of the CSRD and the CSDDD, was finally approved on

December 16 in Parliament.

Companies that exceed 1,000 employees and €450 million in net turnover for two consecutive financial years will be required to

provide sustainability information under the CSRD, starting January 1, 2027. For the CSDDD, companies that exceed 5,000

employees and €1.5 billion in net turnover for two consecutive financial years will be subject to this requirement. Member States

will have until July 2028 to transpose the CSDD, and, in general, the obligations will enter into force for all companies from July 26,

2029.

Regarding the content of the CSRD, it is maintained that the verification of information has a limited scope, the information that

companies subject to the CSRD can require from companies in their value chain is limited, and civil liability at the European level

and climate transition plans are eliminated, among other issues.

With regard to taxonomy, a materiality threshold for disclosure is introduced, and adjusting the green asset ratio (GAR) to exclude

from the denominator those companies that are not subject to the CSRD. The Delegated Act was published in January 2026. This

Delegated Act includes the possibility of suspending the GAR report, subject to the publication of a statement in the sustainability

report.

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Regulation seeks to exempt smaller companies from the obligations of the Regulation

by establishing a broader de minimis exemption. The amendment was published in the OJEU in October.

As part of this simplification process, EFRAG submitted its technical report on December 3 with its proposal for simplifying

reporting standards.

In November 2025, the European Commission presented the review of the Regulation on sustainability-related disclosures in the

financial services sector (SFDR), with the aim of simplifying the current framework and harmonizing sustainability disclosure

requirements in the financial sector.

In relation to the prudential framework, the EBA published its guidelines for ESG risk management in January, in response to the

mandate of Article 87a of the CRD. The guidelines set out requirements for internal processes and ESG risk management to

ensure the resilience of institutions' business models and risk profiles in the short, medium, and long term. The guidelines will

come into force in January 2026.

From the disclosure framework perspective, the EBA consulted the amendment to the ESG reporting requirements in Pillar 3, aims

to simplify sustainability reporting by deprioritising the publication of certain ESG templates. The deprioritisation was endorsed in

August with the publication of a non-action letter, which will cease to be valid when the final version of the ESG disclosure

requirements comes into force.

| p.26 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  2. General aspects and<br><br>information requirements | | --- | --- |

Finally, Spain established the Sustainable Finance Council, strengthening the public-private commitment to decarbonizing the

economy. In March, the Royal Decree creating the carbon footprint, compensation, and carbon dioxide absorption projects

registry was published, thus continuing the Registry that has been in operation since 2014, expanding its scope to accommodate

new types of absorption projects, introducing additional clarifications to improve its operation, introducing improvements in

processing, and strengthening coordination with equivalent regional registries.

Macroprudential framework

At the European level, in December 2024 the ECB published a new methodology for systemic risk buffers for domestic systemic

institutions (DSIBs) that incorporates the perspective of the Banking Union. The methodology will be fully implemented as of

January 1, 2028.

In Spain, in October, the Bank of Spain approved an increase in the countercyclical capital buffer (CCA) requirement from 0.5% to

1%, which will be required of institutions for their exposures located in Spain as of October 1, 2026.

Crisis management framework

At the global level, the Financial Stability Board (FSB) continued to support bank resolution authorities on issues related to the

operationalization and implementation of bail-in and other tools, as well as the exchange of knowledge and practices related to

public liquidity mechanisms. In November, the FSB published guidelines for the application of the key elements of the framework

in the insurance sector.

In Europe, the Single Resolution Board (SRB) updated its operational guidelines on: i) operational continuity in resolution (OCIR),

ii) orderly liquidation of the trading book (SWD), iii) self-assessment of resolvability, and iv) assessment of resolvability. It also

announced that no additional contributions to the Single Resolution Fund were necessary (as it had reached its target level). It also

launched consultations on: i) the valuation of banks in resolution, and ii) its approach to transferability and separability. Meanwhile,

the EBA published an ITS on resolution planning, a manual on simulation exercises for resolution authorities, a consultation to

simplify resolution plans and the functioning of resolution colleges, and an ITS on the framework for reporting MREL decisions by

resolution authorities.

Finally, the European Council and the European Parliament reached a political agreement on the main points of the crisis

management and deposit insurance framework (CMDI) reform package. The package is expected to be finally published and

approved in 2026.

Digital transformation

Digitalization has continued to be one of the priorities of various authorities globally, with significant advances in areas such as

crypto-assets, data and artificial intelligence.

The regulation of crypto-assets is becoming increasingly important, and 2025 has been marked by the full implementation of the

MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) Regulation in Europe.

At the international level, in October 2025, the FSB published a report assessing progress in implementing its 2023

recommendations for regulating crypto-asset activities and global stablecoins. The FSB has concluded that the implementation of

its recommendations is incomplete, uneven, and inconsistent across jurisdictions, increasing the risk of regulatory arbitrage and

complicating the oversight of the global cryptoasset market. On the other hand, the G20 initiative to improve cross-border

payments continues to move forward.

In the EU, the digital strategy remains a priority for 2025, and in the area of simplification, the Commission published in November

an omnibus package of digital regulations focused on five key pillars: data rules, rules on cookies and other elements of the

ePrivacy Directive, cybersecurity incident notification systems, the practical application of the AI Regulation, and the Digital

| p.27 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  2. General aspects and<br><br>information requirements | | --- | --- |

Identity framework. Of particular note in the data field is the proposed amendment to the GDPR, a regulation that, due to its

complexity, the Commission had previously avoided changing. Furthermore, the Commission also announced and published in

November a consultation to conduct an in-depth review of regulations (digital fitness check) to assess the interaction between

different rules, their cumulative impact on businesses, and how effectively they support EU competitiveness, values, and

fundamental rights.

Among the regulations currently being implemented, the Artificial Intelligence Regulation, approved in 2024, stands out. It has

begun to be implemented in stages, while the European Commission has published various guides to help companies apply the

regulation. In February 2025, the first obligations of the regulation, on literacy and prohibited practices, came into force, and the

EC published guidelines on this subject and on the definition of AI systems under the regulation. In August 2025, the obligations of

general-purpose AI model providers came into force, and the Commission previously published the corresponding guidelines and a

code of good practice for these providers.

The efforts of EU Member States are focusing on adapting national legal frameworks to European regulations and designating or

creating competent authorities for supervision. In Spain, the government presented in March the Draft Bill for the Proper Use and

Governance of AI, which designates the Spanish Artificial Intelligence Supervisory Agency (AESIA) as the main market surveillance

authority for most AI systems. Other sectoral authorities assume oversight in their specific areas of competence, such as the Bank

of Spain and the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), in the area of competence that each holds in relation to the

financial supervision of financial institutions, for systems in the field of solvency assessment or credit rating, respectively.

Additionally, as part of the simplification package discussed above, the Commission has proposed a series of amendments to the

AI Regulation to reduce the compliance burden and delay the entry into force of the requirements on high-risk AI systems until 2

December 2027 at the latest.

With regard to digital identity, the eIDAS Regulation, which requires Member States to offer digital identity wallets (EUDIW)) by

December 2026, has seen substantial progress with the completion by the EC of multiple implementing acts introducing the

technical specifications necessary for the launch of the wallets.

In the field of digital assets, the EBA published the final technical standards (RTS) for the capital treatment of exposures to crypto-

assets under the EU transitional framework and its adoption by the European Commission is still pending.

Finally, in December, the Council and the EU Parliament reached a political agreement on the revision of PSD2, which includes new

rules for combating fraud, reimbursing victims of payment provider impersonation scams, and combating fraud and

compensating for losses by digital platforms and communications providers. This agreement will be formally ratified by lawmakers

in the first half of 2026 and will enter into force at the end of 2027 or the beginning of 2028.

Other regulatory developments

In 2025, progress has been made in implementing the amendment of several directives and regulations approved in the last two

years (e.g., MiFIR/MiFID, EMIR, Index Regulation). Of particular note are the application of the new active account requirement,

the latest amendment to EMIR, and the changes to transparency requirements in the MiFIR amendment.

European regulators also have published several consultations with the aim of improving the integration and development of

European capital markets (the EC consultation on the integration of European capital markets), encouraging retail investment in

capital markets (ESMA's Retail Investor Journey), and simplifying operational burdens (ESMA's call for evidence on simplifying

financial transaction disclosure).

For its part, the year 2025 marks the operational launch of the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Authority

(hereinafter, AMLA). The creation of this new authority is part of a broader regulatory package, known as the AML (Anti-Money

Regulation, and the 6th AML Directive.

2.2.3. Regulatory framework update - Entry into force of CRR3

Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 (CRR3), together with the associated Directive (CRD VI), consolidates the implementation in the

European Union of the final Basel III standards and establishes a new prudential framework applicable to credit institutions. The

Regulation applies generally from 1 January 2025 and includes a set of transitional provisions aimed at facilitating a gradual

transition to the new requirements. In this context, the objective of the new framework is to strengthen the resilience of the

financial system, enhance comparability across institutions and limit unwarranted variability in capital requirements, in particular

that arising from the use of internal models.

CRR3 introduces relevant changes to the prudential treatment of the main risk categories. In the area of credit risk, the

Standardised Approach is extensively revised, increasing the granularity of risk weights and updating the treatment of various

exposure classes, including exposures to institutions and corporates, specialised lending transactions, exposures secured by

immovable property and equity exposures. In parallel, the Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) framework is adjusted to align with the

final Basel standards, limiting the use of the Advanced IRB approach for certain portfolios and introducing minimum input floors

for key parameters such as probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and credit conversion factors (CCF).

With regard to operational risk, CRR3 replaces the multiple-approach framework under CRR2 with a single, non-model-based

Standardised Approach. The new methodology is built around the Business Indicator (BI), which reflects the size and business

profile of the institution, and the Business Indicator Component (BIC), which determines the base capital requirement.

In the area of Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) risk, CRR3 introduces a new calculation framework aligned with the final Basel

standards. The revised framework includes a more risk-sensitive Standardised Approach (SA-CVA), a Basic Approach with lower

complexity and a Simplified Approach for institutions with limited derivatives activity. While certain exemptions are retained,

supervisory reporting requirements are strengthened, increasing transparency regarding valuation adjustment risk arising from

derivatives transactions.

CRR3 also introduces the output floor as a cross-cutting mechanism designed to limit the aggregate benefit derived from the use

of internal models in the calculation of risk-weighted assets (RWA). Under this mechanism, RWA calculated using internal models

may not fall below 72.5% of the RWA calculated under the corresponding Standardised Approaches, with a gradual phase-in from

2025 until reaching its final level in 2030.

In addition, CRR3 incorporates specific regulatory provisions relating to exposure to crypto-assets, recognizing the growing

impact of these assets on the financial sector and the associated risks. These new developments establish specific prudential

requirements for exposures linked to crypto-assets, subject to high risk weights and enhanced supervisory criteria to mitigate

volatility, liquidity, and valuation risks. The new framework thus promotes more rigorous and transparent management of these

emerging risks, aligning with international initiatives to ensure financial stability in a rapidly evolving technological environment.

With respect to market risk, although CRR3 incorporates the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) framework, its

application for capital requirement purposes has been deferred in the European Union until 1 January 2027. During the 2025 and

2026 financial years, institutions will continue to calculate market risk capital requirements in accordance with the CRR2

framework, with FRTB applying primarily for reporting purposes.

In other matters, CRR3 includes a set of transitional provisions designed to ensure an orderly transition to the new prudential

framework and to mitigate potential cliff effects on capital requirements.

Together with the prudential changes, CRR3 significantly strengthens the disclosure framework (Pillar 3), expanding and updating

transparency requirements relating to own funds, risk-weighted assets, the use of internal models and the impact of the output

floor. New disclosure requirements are also introduced for specific risk types, in particular credit risk, operational risk and CVA

risk, and alignment between public disclosures and supervisory reporting under the European Banking Authority (EBA) technical

standards is further enhanced.

| p.29 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  2. General aspects and<br><br>information requirements | | --- | --- |

Overall, CRR3 represents a significant reform of the European prudential and transparency framework, with relevant impacts on

risk measurement and management processes and on the calculation of capital requirements, as well as on the content and scope

of the information disclosed in the Group’s Pillar 3 Report, which will progressively reflect the effects of the application of the new

regulatory framework.

In this context, the entry into force of CRR3 did not have a significant impact on the BBVA Group’s capital ratio, with its main

effects relating to changes in the calculation approaches applied to the different risk types and to the enhancement and adaptation

of the information disclosed to the market under the Pillar 3 framework.

2.3.Contents of the 2025 Prudential Relevance Report

Article 431 (3) CRR

Article 13 of the CRR establishes that the parent entities of the European Union are subject, based on their consolidated situation,

to the disclosure requirements set by Part Eight of CRR.

The Prudential Relevance Report (Pillar 3) of the BBVA Group, reflects the prudential information at the consolidated level,

corresponding to the year ended December 31, 2025.The Pillar 3 has been prepared in accordance with the precepts contained in

Part Eight of the CRR, complying with the guidelines published by EBA as well as the applicable technical implementation

standards.

In addition, the main EBA guidelines that apply as of December 31, 2025 are highlighted below:

–Guidelines on materiality, proprietary information, and confidentiality, and on the frequency of disclosure of information

according to Article 432, sections 1 and 2, and Article 433 of Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 (EBA/GL/2014/14). These

guidelines detail the process and the criteria to be followed regarding the principles of materiality, proprietary

information, confidentiality and the right to omit information, and provide guidance for entities to assess the need to

publish information more frequently than the annual one. These guidelines were adopted by the Bank of Spain Executive

Commission in February 2015.

–Implementing Technical Standards published in June 2020 concerning reporting and disclosure of public information

(EBA/ITS/2024/05, hereinafter “CRR3 EBA ITS”).

In these technical standards, the EBA, following the mandate of the European Commission in article 434a of the CRR3,

implements the changes introduced by aforementioned regulation, integrating in a single document most of the

disclosure requirements to the market that were disseminated in various guidelines published to date.

Additionally, these regulations also align with the aim of unifying, as far as possible, public information with the

information reported to the Supervisor through integration in regulatory reporting.

Likewise, together with the aforementioned ITS, the EBA publishes for informative purposes a document called mapping

tool that interrelates the quantitative information of most of the standard templates required in Pillar 3 with the regulatory

reporting, which has been taken into account in the preparation of this report. The implementation of these standards

may produce variations in the content and the way in which the information is presented with respect to previous periods.

–Guidelines on the specification and disclosure of systemic importance indicators (EBA/GL/2020/14), adopted by the

Bank of Spain Executive Commission. These guidelines have been amended and subsequently adopted by Bank of Spain

in 2022 by EBA/GL/2022/12 Guidelines.

–Guidelines on sound remuneration policies under Directive 2013/36/EU (EBA/GL/2021/04). These guidelines were

adopted by the Bank of Spain Executive Commission in December 2021. In addition, as regards remuneration, the

Guidelines on the benchmarking exercises on remuneration practices, the gender pay gap and approved higher ratios

under Directive 2013/36/EU (EBA/GL/2022/06), adopted as its own by the Bank of Spain on December 21, 2022, also

apply.

–Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on disclosure and reporting on the G-SII requirement for own funds and eligible

liabilities (TLAC) and the minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) (EBA/ITS/2020/06),

modified by EBA/Rep/2023/41.

In addition, the BBVA Group's Pillar 3 for the year ended December 31, 2025 has been prepared by applying the standards for the

preparation of the BBVA Group's financial information and, in compliance with the "General Policy for disclosure of economic-

financial, non-financial and corporate information" approved by the governance bodies of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A.

| p.31 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  2. General aspects and<br><br>information requirements | | --- | --- |

Likewise, it should be noted that the data disclosed in the Pillar 3, have been prepared in accordance with the internal processes

and controls described in the "Standard for the preparation of periodic public information of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A.

and BBVA Group” and the “Procedure for the preparation of the Prudential Relevance Report - Pillar 3”. The aforementioned

internal regulations guarantee that the information disclosed in the Pillar 3 is subject to the internal control framework defined by

the Group, as well as to an adequate level of internal review.

The Pillar 3 was approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on February 25, 2026, after analysis by the Audit

Committee at its meeting held on February 23, 2026.

Throughout this report, and, in order to provide greater clarity in compliance with the regulatory requirements, the applicable

regulatory references are included in the heading of each corresponding section. The abovementioned references refer to the

articles of Part Eight of the CRR, followed, where applicable, by the tables required by EBA/ITS/2020/04, unless expressly

indicated in the case of another regulatory publication.

In addition, Annex XIII.a of this report contains the correspondence of the articles of Part Eight of the CRR on disclosure of

information that are applicable at the date of the report with the different sections of the document where the required information

is found. Likewise, Annex XIII.b contains the correspondence of the articles of Annex I, section 21 of the Commission Implementing

Regulation (EU) 2024/3172 on ESG risk disclosure with the different sections of this report.

The aforementioned annex, together with the other annexes and the tables included in this report, are in an editable format in

order to facilitate their treatment, following the recommendations of the EBA Guidelines. This document is called "Pillar 3 2025 -

Tables & Annexes" and available in the Shareholders and Investors / Financial Information section of the Group's website.

2.4.Consolidation perimeters

2.4.1. Differences between the consolidated group for the purposes of

solvency regulations and accounting criteria

Article 436 b) CRR

The BBVA Group’s Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in compliance with IFRS-IASB (International Financial

Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereinafter “IASB”)), as well as in accordance

with the International Financial Reporting Standards endorsed by the European Union (hereinafter, “EU-IFRS”) applicable as of

December 31, 2025, considering the Bank of Spain Circular 4/2017, as well as its successive amendments, and any other

legislation governing financial reporting which was, as of the date of preparation of such consolidated financial statements,

applicable, and with the format and mark-up requirements established in the EU Delegated Regulation 2019/815 of the European

Commission.

On the basis of accounting criteria, companies are considered to form part of a consolidated group when the parent entity holds or

can hold, directly or indirectly, control of them. An institution is understood to control a subsidiary when it is exposed, or is entitled

to, variable returns as a result of its involvement in the subsidiary and has the capacity to influence those returns through the

power it exercises over the subsidiary. For control to exist, the following aspects must be fulfilled:

a.Power: An investor has power over a subsidiary when it has current rights that provide it with the capacity to direct its

relevant activities, i.e. those that significantly affect the returns of the subsidiary.

b.Returns: An investor is exposed, or is entitled to variable returns, as a result of its involvement in the subsidiary when the

returns obtained by the investor for such involvement may vary based on the economic performance of the subsidiary.

Investor returns can be positive only, negative only, or positive and negative at the same time.

c.Relationship between power and returns: An investor has control over a subsidiary when it not only has power over the

subsidiary and is exposed, or is entitled to, variable returns for its involvement in the subsidiary, but it also has the capacity to

use its power to influence the returns it obtains due to its involvement in the subsidiary.

Therefore, in drawing up the Consolidated Financial Statements of BBVA Group, all dependent companies and consolidating

structured entities have been consolidated by applying the full consolidation method.

Associated companies, as well as joint ventures (those over which joint control arrangements are in place), are valued using the

equity method.

The list of all the companies forming part of the Group is included in the appendices to the Consolidated Financial Statements of

BBVA Group.

For the purposes of solvency regulations, the following subsidiaries form part of the consolidated group, as defined in Article 18 of

the CRR:

–Credit institutions

–Investment firms

–Financial Institutions

A financial institution is a company, separate from other institutions (credit institution or investment firm), whose main activity

may consist of acquiring holdings or performing one or more of the following activities:

| p.33 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  2. General aspects and<br><br>information requirements | | --- | --- |

–Loans, including in particular consumer finance, credit agreements relating to immovable property, recourse and non-

recourse factoring, and financing of commercial transactions (including forfaiting)

–Financial leasing

–Payment services

–Issuing and managing other payment channels (e.g. traveler's checks and bank checks)

–Granting of guarantees and commitments

–Trading on their own account or on behalf of customers on any of the following instruments:

–Money market instruments (checks, bills, certificates of deposit etc.)

–Foreign currency

–Financial futures and options

–Foreign-exchange or interest-rate instruments

–Marketable securities

–Participating in the issuance of securities and the provision of corresponding services

–Advising companies with regard to capital structure, industrial strategy and related matters, as well as advice

and services for mergers and acquisitions of companies

–Brokerage in the interbank markets

–Managing or advising on equity management

–Custody and administration of marketable securities

–Issuance of electronic money

This definition includes financial holding companies, mixed financial holding companies, payment institutions

and asset management firms, but excludes pure industrial holding companies, insurance companies, insurance

holding companies and mixed insurance holding companies.

–Auxiliary services companies: A company whose main activity is holding or management of property,

management of computing services or any other similar activity of an auxiliary nature with regard to the main

activity of one or more institutions (credit institution or investment firm).

Therefore, for the purposes of calculating solvency requirements, and hence the drawing up of this Prudential Relevance Report,

the scope of consolidating entities is different from the scope defined for the purposes of drawing up the Consolidated Financial

Statements of BBVA Group.

The effect of the difference between the two regulations is mainly due to:

–Withdrawals from the balance made by entities (largely insurance companies regulated by the Solvency II regulatory

framework) that are consolidated in the Consolidated Financial Statements of BBVA Group by the full consolidation

method and consolidated for the purposes of solvency by applying the equity method.

–Entries to the balance contributed mainly by financial entities, consolidated by applying the equity method at the

accounting level, but for the purposes of solvency, are proportionally integrated.

–The list of entities that use different consolidation methods in their public and regulatory balance sheets is included in the

table EU LI3 in Annex I.

The main differences between the public balance sheet and the regulatory balance sheet are due to withdrawals from the balance

generated by insurance, real estate and financial entities that are consolidated through the application of the equity method for the

amount of €-32,974 million; and balance entries generated by entities that are consolidated using the proportional integration

method for an amount of €+1,151 million.

The process of reconciliation between accounting equity and regulatory own funds is shown below. Based on the shareholders’

equity reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements of BBVA Group and applying the deductions and adjustments shown in

the table below, reaching to the regulatory capital figure eligible for solvency purposes:

As the table shows, the main sources of difference between the accounting value on the balance sheet and the amount of exposure for regulatory purposes are the inclusion of off-balance

sheet items after the conversion factor, the different treatment of the guarantees eligible as risk mitigation techniques and the regulatory treatment of derivative and securities financing

transactions (inclusion of netting rules other than those applied in accounting value and the inclusion of the potential future exposure).

2.4.2.Identification of dependent entities with bank capital below the

minimum requirement. Possible impediments to transferring own funds

Article 436 f), g) CRR

EU LIB a), d)

As of December 31, 2025, there are no entities in the Group with capital adequacy below their applicable minimum regulatory

requirement.

The Group operates mainly in Spain, Mexico, Turkey and South America. The Group’s banking subsidiaries around the world are

subject to supervision and regulation (with respect to issues such as compliance with a minimum level of regulatory capital) by a

number of regulatory bodies.

The obligation to comply with these capital requirements may affect the capacity of these banking subsidiaries to transfer funds

(e.g. via dividends) to the parent company.

In some jurisdictions in which the Group operates, the regulations lay down that dividends may only be paid with the funds

available by regulation for this purpose.

2.4.3. Exemptions from capital requirements at the individual or sub-

consolidated level

Article 436 h) CRR

EU LIB c)

In accordance with what is set out in the solvency regulations regarding the exemption from capital requirements compliance for

Spanish credit institutions belonging to a consolidated group (at individual or sub-consolidated level) established in the

aforementioned regulation, the Group obtained exemption from the supervisor on December 30, 2009 for Banco Occidental, S.A.

(this exemption was ratified through ECB decision 1024/2013).

In addition, for Financiero de Crédito de Portugal (BBVA IFIC, S.A.), the ECB has decided not to apply prudential requirements

individually.

3.1.Capital

3.1.1. Minimum own funds requirements per capital tier

Article 440 b) CRR

Article 92 of the CRR establishes that credit institutions must maintain the following own funds requirements at all times:

a.Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%, calculated as Common Equity Tier 1 capital expressed as a percentage on the

total amount of risk-weighted assets.

b.Tier 1 capital ratio of 6%, calculated as the level of tier capital 1 expressed as a percentage of the total amount of risk-

weighted assets.

c.Total capital ratio of 8%, calculated as the total own funds expressed as a percentage of the total amount of risk-weighted

assets.

Notwithstanding the application of the Pillar 1 requirement, CRD IV allows competent authorities to require credit institutions to

maintain a level of own funds higher than the requirements of Pillar 1 to cover types of risk other than those already covered by the

Pillar 1 requirement (this power of the competent authority is commonly referred to as "Pillar 2R" from “Requirement”).

Additionally, CRD IV also grants the power to these authorities to propose an additional indicative buffer that entities should

maintain for optimal capitalization (Pillar 2G, for “Guidance”). The latter is non-binding and, therefore, is not part of the official

requirement of the entities, which establishes the threshold of the Maximum Distributable Amount (MDA, for its acronym in

English). However, not complying with this additional buffer could trigger the definition of additional supervision and control

measures by the ECB.

Furthermore, since 2016 and in accordance with CRD IV, credit institutions must comply with the following combined requirement

of capital buffers at all times: (i) the capital conservation buffer, (ii) the buffer for global systemically important banks (the "G-SIB"

buffer), (iii) the entity-specific countercyclical capital buffer, (iv) the buffer for other systemically important banks ("D-SIB" buffer)

and (v) the systemic risk capital buffer. The “combined capital buffer requirement” must be met with Common Equity Tier 1 capital

(“CET1”) to cover both minimum capital required by “Pillar 1” and “Pillar 2".

Both the capital conservation buffer and the G-SIB buffer (where appropriate) will apply to credit institutions as it establishes a

percentage greater than 0%.

The buffer for global systemically important banks applies to those institutions on the list of global systemically important banks,

which is updated annually by the Financial Stability Board (“FSB”). Considering the fact that BBVA does not appear on that list, as

at the report date, the G-SIB buffer does not apply to BBVA.  Detailed information on each of the quantitative indicators that form

part of the evaluation process is available on the BBVA Group's website.

The Bank of Spain has extensive discretionary powers as regards the countercyclical capital buffer specific to each bank, the

buffer for other systemically important financial institutions (which are those institutions considered to be systemically important

domestic financial institutions “D-SIB”) and the buffer against systemic risk (to prevent or avoid systemic or macroprudential

risk). The European Central Bank (ECB) has the powers to issue recommendations in this respect following the entry into force on

November 4, 2014 of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).

With regard to the minimum capital requirements applicable to the Group as of December 31, 2025, these amount to a minimum

CET1 ratio of 9.29%, as well as a minimum total capital ratio of 13.44%.

4 Including 0.12% determined on the basis of the ECB prudential provisioning expectations.

| p.42 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  3. Solvency | | --- | --- |

Following the latest decision of the SREP (Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process), which came into force on January 1, 2026,

the ECB has notified the Group that the Pillar 2 requirement is maintained at 1.62% (of which 0.96%4 at least should be covered by

CET1). In addition, the Bank of Spain has reduced the D-SIB buffer requirement to 0.75% which the Group must maintain since

January 1, 2026, 0.25% less than that in force on December 31, 2025. Therefore, BBVA must maintain a CET1 capital ratio of

8.98% and a total capital ratio of 13.13% at a consolidated level.

Thus, the consolidated overall capital requirement includes: i) the minimum capital requirement of Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1)

of Pillar 1 (4.50%); ii) the capital requirement of Additional Tier 1 (AT1) of Pillar 1 (1.50%); iii) the capital requirement of Tier 2 of

Pillar 1 (2.00%); iv) the CET1 requirement of Pillar 2 (0.96%4), v) the capital requirement of Additional Tier 1 (AT1) of Pillar 2

(0.28%); vi) the capital requirement of Tier 2 of Pillar 2 (0.38%); vii) the capital conservation buffer (2.50% of CET1); viii) the

capital buffer for Other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SIIs) (0.75% of CET1); and ix) the countercyclical buffer (CCyB) and

systemic risk buffer updated as of December 31, 2025 (0.25% and 0.01% of CET1, respectively)

The BBVA Group has set the objective of maintaining a fully loaded CET1 ratio at a consolidated level between 11.5% and 12.0%. At

the end of the financial year 2025, the fully loaded CET1 ratio was above this target management range.

CET1 ratio reached 12.70% which represents 341 basis points over the minimum requirement of 9.29%.

The following table shows a comparison between the Group's capital requirements and its ratios as of December 31, 2025:

The following table shows the CET1 ratio that would trigger restrictions on capital distribution capacity and the capital ratios as of

December 2025:

The countercyclical capital buffer requirement applicable to the BBVA Group is approximately 0.25%, which increased 15 basis

points compared to December 2024. This requirement means that the Group must maintain an additional capital buffer of €1,008

million at the end of December 2025.

The increase is mainly motivated by the activation of the Spanish requirement, to 0.5% from October 1, 2025, which represents 15

basis points.

Annex IV shows the country breakdown of exposures and countercyclical buffer requirements (EU CCyB1).

On the other hand, regarding the systemic risk buffer, it is still active for all credit and counterparty risk exposures in Italy, being up

from 0.5% as of 31 December 2024 to 1% applicable as from 30 June 2025.

In practice, this has meant that the Group had to increase its systemic risk buffer to €38 million (0.01%).

3.1.2. Minimum own funds requirements by risk type

The entry into force of CRR3 on 1 January 2025 brought about substantial changes in the calculation of minimum capital

requirements based on Article 92 of the aforementioned Regulation.

These changes are aimed at developing more risk-sensitive approaches, as well as limiting the variability of the capital

requirements resulting from the application of internal models and facilitating their comparability and robustness, by increasing

segmentation, restricting the capacity to estimate certain parameters in those risk categories where robust modelling is more

complex and, lastly, establishing a lower limit for the capital requirements resulting from internal models with respect to those if

standardised methods were used.

3.1.2.1. Entity risk profile

Article 438 d) CRR

The BBVA Group has a general risk management and control model (hereinafter, the “Model”) that is appropriate for its business

model, its organisation, the countries where it operates and its corporate governance system. This model allows the Group to

carry out its activity within the risk management and control strategy and policy defined by the corporate bodies of BBVA and to

adapt itself to a changing economic and regulatory environment, facing this management at a global level and aligned to the

circumstances at all times. The Model establishes a suitable risk management system related to the risk profile and strategy of the

entity.

The types of risk inherent in the business that make up the risk profile of the Group are as follows:

1.Credit risk and dilution: Credit risk arises from the probability that one party to a financial instrument will fail to meet its

contractual obligations for reasons of insolvency or inability to pay and cause a financial loss for the other party. This includes

counterparty risk, issuer risk, liquidation risk and country risk.

2.Counterparty risk: The credit risk corresponding to derivative instruments, repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions,

securities or commodities lending or borrowing transactions and deferred settlement transactions.

3.Credit Valuation Adjustment Risk (CVA): Its aim is to reflect the impact on the fair value of the counterparty’s credit risk,

resulting from OTC derivative instruments which are not recognised credit derivatives for the purpose of reducing the

amount of credit risk weighted exposure.

4.Market risk: Market risk originates in the possibility that there may be losses in the value of positions held due to movements

in the market variables that affect the valuation of financial products and assets in the trading book. This includes risk with

respect to the position in debt and equity instruments, exchange rate risk and commodity risk.

5.Operational risk: a risk that may cause losses as a result of human error; inadequate or defective internal processes;

inadequate conduct toward customers, in the markets or against the company; failures, interruptions or deficiencies in

systems or communications; theft, loss or misuse of information, as well as deterioration of its quality; internal or external

fraud including, in all cases, fraud resulting from cyber-attacks; theft or physical damage to assets or persons; legal risks;

risks resulting from workforce and occupational health management; and inadequate service provided by suppliers. This

definition includes legal risk, but excludes strategic and/or business risk and reputational risk.

6.Structural risk: This is divided into structural interest-rate risk (movements in market interest rates that cause changes in an

entity’s net interest income and book value) and structural exchange-rate risk (exposure to variations in exchange rates

originating in the Group’s foreign companies and in the provision of funds to foreign branches financed in a different currency

from that of the investment).

7.Liquidity risk: Risk of an entity having difficulties in duly meeting its payment commitments, or where, to meet them, it has to

resort to funding under burdensome terms which may harm the Group’s image or reputation.

8.Reputational risk: Considered to be the potential loss in earnings as a result of events that may negatively affect the

perception of the Group’s different stakeholders.

5 From January 1, 2030, when the measure will be considered fully loaded. CRR3 establishes a phased-in implementation period, during which the percentage will be

increased annually (50% in 2025, 55% in 2026, 60% in 2027, 65% in 2028, 70% in 2029). The BBVA Group has not adhered to the transitional period, so the ratios

presented include the 72.5% established as the lower limit.

In 2025, risk-weighted assets increased by approximately 3 billion euros. The impact of organic growth stemming from banking

activity under credit risk is offset by the exchange-rate impact (mainly driven by turkish lira, argentinian peso and US dollar) and

by regulatory impacts. Meanwhile, operational risk increased due to regulatory changes and changes in the years considered in the

calculation.

The evolution of RWA by type of risk is explained in more detail in the respective sections of the report.

Total risk-weighted assets are shown below, broken down by type of risk (where credit risk includes counterparty risk) as of

December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

3.1.2.2. Comparison of modelled and standardised risk weighted exposure amounts

Article 438 d.a) CRR

The new CRR3 Regulation provides for an amendment to the calculation of the minimum capital requirements set out in Article 92,

paragraph 3. This modification implies that the capital requirements calculated using internal models will have a lower limit of

72.5%5 with respect to that resulting if they had been calculated using the standardised approach. This lower limit is denominated

as Output Floor. As shown in table 11, the Group is not affected by this limit.

The summary table showing the comparison between risk-weighted assets calculated by internal models and standardised

approach by risk type, as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025 are below.

This table provide a comparison of the current risk-weighted assets (third column) with those that the Group would have in the

event of the Output Floor being affected on a full basis (fourth column) or under the transitional provisions of article 465 of CRR3

(fifth column).

The BBVA Group does not make use of the transitional provisions included in the CRR, so the phased-in and fully loaded ratios are

the same.

The CET1 fully loaded ratio of the BBVA Group (hereinafter, the Group) stood at 12.70% at the end of December 2025,

representing a large management buffer over the Group's CET 1 requirement (9.29%) and over the Group's target management

range of between 11.5 - 12% of CET 1.

The CET1 ratio decreased by -18 basis points, mainly explained by the impact of -105 basis points from the extraordinary share

buyback program (SBB). Among the recurring impacts, there has been a great generation of earnings in the year (+265 basis

points) which, net of shareholder remuneration and payment of contingent convertible instrument coupons (CoCos), generated a

positive contribution of +122 basis points.

Meanwhile, the growth in risk-weighted assets (RWA) derived from the organic growth of the business in constant terms, mainly as

a result of the increase in the loan portfolio, and, to a lesser extent, debt securities, partially offset by a risk transfer initiatives

drained the ratio by -152 basis points.

| p.51 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  3. Solvency | | --- | --- |

Finally, the other elements that make up CET1 had a positive contribution of +61 basis points; these include the calculation of

minority interests and the positive impact in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) equivalent to the net monetary position value

loss in hyperinflationary economies, as well as the portfolio recorded in fair value through other comprehensive income

(corresponding to assets classified as Held to Collect and Sell) HTC&S. In addition, the negative effects of market evolution are

also included, particularly the variation of the foreign exchange, mainly represented by the variation of Turkish lira and, to a lesser

extent, the Mexican peso, partially offset by the depreciation of US dollar, throughout the year.

Consolidated Additional Tier 1 (AT1) capital fully loaded stood at 1.38% as of December 31, 2025, -15 basis points lower than in

  1. In January 2025, BBVA, S.A. issued contingent convertible instruments (CoCos) for USD 1 billion, and it made a further

issuance in November 2025 for €1 billion. On the other hand, in March 2025, BBVA redeemed an issuance of contingent

convertible bonds of USD 1 billion. Additionally, in December 2025, the redemption of another issuance of contingent convertible

instruments of €1 billion was announced, which took place in January 2026.

The Tier 2 fully  stood at 3.13% as of December 31, 2025, which represents an increase of +63 basis points compared to 2024,

mainly due to the issuance of a subordinated bond in Spain (€1 billion) in February 2025, the issuance in Mexico, also in February

2025 of subordinated debt for an amount of USD 1 billion, and the issuances in July and October 2025 of USD 500 million and USD

700 million, respectively of subordinated debt in Turkey.

As a result of the above, the total capital ratio stood at 17.21% as of December 31, 2025.

The composition of the fully loaded total capital ratio as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025 is shown below:

image5.jpg

| p.52 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  3. Solvency | | --- | --- |

Regarding the specific variation during the quarter, the Group’s CET1 fully loaded decreased by -72 basis points with respect to the

September level (13.42%).

Regarding the recurring aspects that impact the ratio, it is worth noting the strong earnings generation during the quarter, which

contributed +64 basis points to the ratio, which, net of the provision for dividends and the coupon payments on AT1 instruments

(CoCos) contributed +30 basis points to CET1 ratio. Organic growth in risk-weighted assets (RWA) at constant exchange rates,

which net of risk transfer initiatives, represents a consumption of -57 basis points, reflecting, once again, the Group's ability to

continue reinvesting in new growth.

Meanwhile, among the other impacts whose aggregate has not had a significant effect on the ratio (4 basis points), it is worth

highlighting the positive compensatory effect on "Other Comprehensive Income" offsetting the negative impact in the income

statement from the loss on the net monetary position recorded in the financial statements of the subsidiaries operating in

hyperinflationary economies and the negative effects of the exchange rate and other market variables

On the other hand, noteworthy is the positive effect of regulatory impacts that have resulted in +56 basis points and on the

contrary,  the impact of -105 basis points from the extraordinary share buyback program (SBB) announced in December 2025 for

a maximum amount of €3.96 billion.

image19.jpg

The AT1 fully loaded ratio stood at 1.38% showing a slight variation (-1 basis points) compared to September 30, 2025. Merely

impacted in the quarter by organic RWA growth, offset by the currency effect. The issuance of €1 billion contingent convertible

debt (CoCo) by BBVA, S.A. in November was offset by the redemption of another issuance for the same amount in December.

The Tier 2 fully loaded ratio has experienced a significant variation in the quarter (19 basis points), mainly impacted by the

issuance in Turkey of a USD 700 million of subordinated debt in October.

3.1.4. Procedure used in the capital self-assessment process

Article 438 a), c) CRR

EU OVC a)

The Group carries out the internal capital assessment process in accordance with the Capital Requirements Directive 2013/36/EU

and guidelines on the supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP) published by the European Banking Authority. In

accordance with Article 108 of the Capital Requirements Directive (2013/36/EU), the Group complies with the obligations set out

in Article 73 thereof on a consolidated basis. Furthermore, the document is structured on the basis of the ECB's guidance on the

internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP) of November 2018.

Within the framework of the internal capital assessment process, the Group assesses and quantifies all risk that could significantly

affect its capital position and draws a conclusion on the capital adequacy from a holistic medium-term perspective.

The Group applies a proportionate approach that aims to ensure the entity's survival and continued compliance with all legal and

internal requirements. In addition to regulatory and accounting perspectives, the Group bases its capital adequacy position

analysis on a sound internal approach in which its capital position is assessed under an economic vision, which includes

quantifying capital needs for risk covered in Pillar 1 of Basel and the needs due to risk not covered by Pillar 1.

The following are some of the points assessed in the internal capital assessment process:

–Business and strategy model, describing both the changes planned by the bank in the current business model and its

underlying activities such as the relationship between the business strategy and internal capital assessment process.

–Internal governance, risk management and the control framework, reviewing the processes and mechanisms that ensure

that the bank has a sound and integrated framework for managing present and future material risk.

–Risk appetite framework, describing the correspondence between this framework and the bank’s business strategy and

model.

–Identification and assessment of risk (including credit, operational, market, liquidity and other structural risk) and

quantification of the capital necessary to cover them, with a quantitative reconciliation between the Pillar 1 and Pillar 2

approaches.

–Planning capital under baseline and stress scenarios, projecting the capital base of the Group, the parent and its main

subsidiaries over the next four years and analysing capital sufficiency in accordance with the regulatory requirements and

the internal objectives set out by the entity for the close of the period, also dealing with the planned capital actions.

This internal capital assessment process concludes with submission to the supervisor of an annual report on the process. The

report plays a key role in the review and evaluation methodology applied by the Single Supervisory Mechanism, and is an

important element for determining capital requirements under Pillar 2.

3.2.Leverage Ratio

Article 451 (1) a), b), d), e), f) CRR

EU LRA

The leverage ratio (LR) is a regulatory measure (not risk-based) complementing capital designed to guarantee the soundness and

financial strength of institutions in terms of indebtedness.

The entry into force of CRR2 in June 2021 meant the equalization, at the regulatory level, of the leverage ratio with that of capital,

through the establishment of a Pillar 1 minimum requirement of 3%, added to the article 92. In addition, this regulation, also

establishes an additional requirement for those entities considered to be of global systemic importance (GSII).

Furthermore, CRD V, as well as for regulatory capital, incorporated supervisory discretion so that the competent authority can

establish an additional requirement (Pillar 2R), as well as an indicative buffer to cover excessive leverage (Pillar 2G).

As of December 31, 2025, the BBVA Group does not have any additional LR requirement, so the applicable requirement is 3%.

Described below are the elements making up the leverage ratio, in accordance with CRR:

–Tier 1 capital: Section 3.1.3. of this Document presents details of the eligible own funds, calculated based on the criteria

defined in the CRR.

–Total Exposure: As set out in Article 429 of the CRR, the total exposure measure generally follows the book value subject

to the following considerations:

–On-balance sheet exposure other than derivatives is included net of allowances and accounting valuation

adjustments.

–The measure of the Group’s total exposure is composed of the total assets as per financial statements adjusted

for reconciliation between the accounting perimeter and the prudential perimeter.

Total exposure for the purpose of calculating the leverage ratio is composed by the sum of the exposure values of:

–Assets: the exposure value of an asset item will be its accounting value remaining after the application of specific credit

risk adjustments. In general terms, securities financing transactions will not be compensated except for certain

conditions.

–Derivatives contracts: the Entity calculates the exposure value of derivatives contracts in accordance with the standard

method of counterparty risk (SA-CCR). When calculating the exposure value, the effects of compensation agreements

(netting) will be taken into account. For the purposes of calculating the exposure value, collateral received will not be

included, except under certain conditions.

–Add-ons for counterparty credit risk of securities financing transactions (SFTs): in addition to the calculation of the

exposure value of securities financing transactions, included in the first point, the total exposure measure shall include an

add-on due to counterparty credit risk in accordance with article 429e of the CRR2.

–Off-balance sheet items: these correspond to risk and contingent liabilities and commitments, mainly collateral and

undrawn balances. A minimum floor is applied to conversion factors (CCFs) of 10% in line with the provisions of the

Article 429f (3) of CRR2.

–Regular-way purchases or sales awaiting settlement.

In addition, certain concepts are excluded:

–Exposures excluded from the total exposure measure. Items that, in accordance with Article 429 of the CRR, are not

included in the exposure measure of the leverage ratio because they meet specific regulatory exemption conditions.

| p.55 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  3. Solvency | | --- | --- |

–Tier 1 deductions: all those amounts of assets that have been deducted in the determination of the eligible Tier 1 capital

are deducted, in order not to duplicate exposure. The main deductions are intangible assets, loss carry forwards and

other deductions defined in Article 36 of CRR2 and indicated in section 3.1.3 of this report.

On the following chart, the leverage ratio quarterly evolution along the year, as well as its components is shown:

image21.jpg

As of December 31, 2025, the leverage ratio stood at 6.15%, decreasing in -57 basis points with respect to September 2025. This

decrease is mainly due to the negative evolution of Tier 1 capital, which has resulted in a -30 basis points reduction in the leverage

ratio, due to the deduction of the share buyback program, and by the exposure measure, which has subtracted -7 basis points to

the leverage ratio, evolving in line with the Group's asset growth.

Additionally, during the year (-65 basis points), the organic evolution of the balance sheet stands out, representing a decrease of

-55 basis points. On the other hand, solid earnings generation has limited the reduction in annual Tier 1 as a consequence of SBB,

representing -11 basis points. compared to December 31, 2024.

The table below shows a breakdown of the main items making up the leverage ratio as of December 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and

as of December 31, 2024.

Solvency | | --- | --- |

Regarding leverage management, this is included in the Capital Plan approved by the Board of Directors. The BBVA Group

systematically follows the evolution of leverage levels and monitors their degree of adequacy with the regulatory requirements and

internal objectives. The evolution of this ratio, as well as its evaluation with the different operational measures, are part of the

monitoring and reporting that, at least quarterly, is reported to different committees and governing bodies. Additionally, the

evolution of the ratio is evaluated, contrasting possible deviations from planning.

As part of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), four-year leverage ratio estimates are calculated annually

for different macroeconomic scenarios, including a stress scenario.

Following the SREP process, the supervisor has not imposed additional capital requirements as a result of excessive leverage.

Within this management framework, the Group has established specific measures aimed at restoring its optimal leverage levels in

the event of potential contingencies or unexpected elements that could affect compliance with them.

In line with the risk appetite framework and the structural risk management, the Group operates by establishing limits and

operational measures that allow achieving sustainable evolution and growth of the Balance Sheet, always maintaining tolerable

risk levels. Proof of this is the level of regulatory leverage itself, which is comfortably above the minimum requirements.

6 Multiple Point of Entry established by the Single Resolution Board (SRB). Being an MPE implies that, should any of the group's subsidiaries have solvency, liquidity or

operational problems, the resolution authority could liquidate/resolve that entity without affecting the rest of the companies in the banking group.

7 The resolution group is made up of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. and the subsidiaries belonging to the same European resolution group.

8 According to the article 64 of the CRR, during the 5 years prior to the maturity of an issuance, its eligibility progressively decreases until it reaches zero at maturity.

9 The subordinated requirement in RWA is 13.50%.

10 Calculated according to current regulations and supervisory criteria as of December 31, 2025

11 The subordinated requirement in LR is 5.66%.

3.3.MREL

Article 45i (3) a), c) BRRD

EBA/ITS/2020/06

The Minimum Requirement for Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities, MREL, aims to ensure that institutions maintain a sufficient

amount of equity and debt instruments available to absorb losses and, if necessary, convert into capital.

Institutions have the obligation to comply with the aforementioned requirement as a result of the Bank Recovery and Resolution

Directive (BRRD), whose update (BRRD2) published in 2019 and effective as of December 2020, established January 1, 2024 as

the deadline to comply with this requirement. Additionally, it established another requirement on subordinated instruments, which

came into force on January 1, 2022.

BBVA, as an MPE6, has sub-consolidated requirements, based on its resolution group7.

In line with other prudential ratios, non-compliance with any of the MREL requirements might entail additional supervision and

control measures, as well as the prohibition of distribution of dividends, coupons of AT1 instruments and variable remuneration.

In order to achieve the basis of own funds and eligible liabilities that make up the numerator of the ratio, resolution institutions

have at their disposal their total capital, to which are added other eligible debt instruments (hereinafter Tier 3) for loss absorption

and recapitalisation (bail-in). These instruments are classified according to their seniority in the event of a resolution event into

subordinated and senior. This is why the BRRD establishes two separate requirements (subordination and MREL).

In the event that the entity incurs losses, and once Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital has been exhausted, the hierarchy of Tier 3 instruments

available to BBVA is as follows:

1.Senior non-preferred debt.

2.Senior preferred debt.

3.Eligible subordinated liabilities not recognised as own funds; includes the decline8 of T2 issuances and subordinated debt.

In short, MREL compliant liabilities must be eligible to absorb losses, and their seniority will depend on the nature of the instrument

and its classification within the above hierarchy.

In the case of the denominator, institutions will use the total RWA and the leverage ratio exposure measure of their resolution

group, under the same provisions as in the calculation of their capital and leverage ratios, respectively.

On June 12, 2025 the Group made public that it had received a communication from the Bank of Spain regarding its MREL

requirement, established by the Single Resolution Board (“SRB”). According to this communication, BBVA must maintain, as from

June 12, 2025, an MREL in RWA of 23.13%9, not taking into account the current10 combined buffer requirement (CBR) of 3.97%. In

addition, BBVA must keep, also as from June 12, 2025, a volume of own funds and eligible liabilities in terms of total exposure

considered for purposes of calculating the leverage ratio of 8.59% (the “MREL in LR”)11.

With respect to the MREL ratios achieved as of December 31, 2025, these were 28.89% and 10.21%, respectively for MREL in RWA

and MREL in LR, reaching the subordinated ratios of both 24.67% and 8.72%, respectively.

| p.59 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  3. Solvency | | --- | --- |

In terms of disclosure, BBVA, as an O-SII, is subject to the requirements of the BRRD (article 45 i, paragraph 6), and article 437a of

the CRR does not apply to it as it is not considered to be G-SIB.

The following table shows, among others, the detail of shareholders' equity and eligible liabilities, which make up the structure of

the MREL base. Only the applicable rows and columns are presented in the table:

The full template, including non applicable cells, is available in the editable file “Pillar 3 2025 – Tables & Annexes”.

The MREL situation with respect to the requirement has significantly decreased during the year, by €-7.5 billion, partly motivated

by the own requirement update in 2025, higher than the one in force in December 2024. Throughout the year, other relevant

effects have occurred:

On the CET1 side, there was a very positive contribution from the year's results, supported in part by the dividends from Mexico,

Garanti, and Peru. This impact is offset by the extraordinary Share Buyback of €-3.96 billion.

p.60

Issuances were planned and executed in such a way as to adequately cover the period's maturities and redemptions during the

period (€-2 billion in AT1), and a new T2 issuance of €1 billion has been made. In the case of Senior preferred issuances, a negative

balance was presented at year-end, with 4 issuances maturing for a total value of €2 billion, with the certainty that two issuances

have already been made in January that compensate for the position.

Given the structure of the resolution group's own funds and eligible liabilities, as of December 31, 2025, the Group meets the

aforementioned requirements.

As mentioned before, with the aim of reinforcing compliance with these requirements, BBVA has made several debt issuances

during 2025. For more information of issuances, see section 4.5.3 of this report.

A table showing the ranking of creditors of the instruments eligible for MREL, as well as their amounts is presented in Annex VII,

according to the standardised EBA template EU TLAC3b.

4.1.General Risk Management and Control Model

The BBVA Group has implemented a comprehensive Risk Management and Control Model (the “Model”) tailored to its business

model, organizational structure, countries of operation, and corporate governance system. The Model enables the Group to

operate in alignment with the risk strategy and policy defined by BBVA’s governing bodies, providing both those bodies and the

highest executive levels with a holistic view of all risks to which the Group is exposed.

The Model is applied across the entire Group and consists of the following core elements:

–a governance model, both at the level of the corporate bodies and the executive domain;

–a Risk Appetite Framework;

–a set of processes for risk assessment, monitoring, and reporting;

–a set of internal regulations, resources, and infrastructure; and

–a risk culture led by senior management (tone from the top).

The Model also incorporates the regulatory environment applicable to the Bank, supervisory expectations, and the evolving

economic and regulatory landscape in which the Group operates.

4.1.1. General principles

Article 435 (1) a), b) CRR

EU OVA b), f)

Risk management and control within the BBVA Group shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of the General Policies

(including the Model) and the decisions adopted by the corporate bodies (including the Risk Appetite Framework), and in

compliance with the following general principles:

–Prudence: risk management at BBVA is guided by a prudent approach, aiming to ensure the Group’s preparedness to

address risks, even under highly adverse scenarios.

–Proactivity and foresight: BBVA adopts a proactive and forward-looking approach to risk management, enabling the swift

implementation of measures in response to any early signs of undesired risk increases.

–Comprehensive Management (end-to-end): BBVA manages risk throughout its entire lifecycle: origination and/or

identification, measurement, monitoring, and management (including mitigation and/or prevention, as applicable). This

requires proper coordination among all relevant executive areas.

–Critical thinking: risk management and control at BBVA shall be carried out in an environment that enables and

encourages constructive challenge, critical thinking, and diversity of perspectives to enrich the decision-making process.

–Integrity, ethical conduct, and regulatory compliance: the effectiveness of BBVA’s risk management and control model

requires maintaining the highest standards of corporate integrity and ethical conduct by all its members, in accordance

with the BBVA Group’s Code of Conduct, the Group’s purpose and values, and in full compliance with all laws and

regulations applicable to the Bank in the course of its activities.

–Well-defined organizational responsibilities: risk management relies on a governance framework that must include clearly

defined organizational responsibilities, commonly referred to as the «three lines of defense»:

–the business line;

–an independent risk management and compliance function, separate from the first line of defense; and

–an internal audit function, independent from both the first and second lines of defense.

| p.64 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Accountability: the effectiveness of BBVA’s risk management and control model depends on each employee

fulfilling and taking responsibility for the functions assigned to them under the three lines of defense model.

4.1.2. Risk Governance model within the corporate bodies

Article 435 (1) a), b), (2) d), e) CRR

EU OVA b), EU OVB b), d)

The BBVA Group’s risk governance model is characterized by the active involvement of its corporate bodies, both in setting the

risk strategy and in continuously overseeing its implementation. This provides them with a holistic view of all the risks to which the

Group is exposed.

In accordance with BBVA’s corporate governance system, the Board of Directors reserves certain responsibilities related both to

management—by adopting the most significant decisions—and to oversight and control—by monitoring and supervising decisions

taken and the Bank’s management.

To ensure the effective performance of these management and supervisory responsibilities, the corporate governance system

provides for various committees that support the Board of Directors in matters within its remit, as defined by the specific

regulations governing each committee. A coordinated working structure among these governing bodies has been established.

The following sections outline the roles of BBVA’s corporate bodies in the Group’s risk management and control framework:

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is responsible for setting the Group’s risk strategy and, in carrying out this function, defines the risk

management and control policy, which is embodied in:

–the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework, as defined in the Model;

–the set of General Risk Management Policies for the various risk types to which the Bank is or may be exposed, which

establish the core principles for managing and controlling risks in a consistent and uniform manner across the Group, and

in alignment with the Model and the Risk Appetite Framework; and

–the Model.

These responsibilities are carried out in coordination with the Bank’s other strategic and forward-looking decisions, including the

Strategic Plan, the Annual Budget, the Capital Plan, and the Liquidity and Funding Plan, as well as other management objectives,

all of which are also subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.

In addition to defining the risk strategy, the Board of Directors exercises oversight and control functions related to risk by

monitoring the evolution of risks at the Group level and across its main business areas, to ensure alignment with the Group’s Risk

Appetite Framework. The Board also oversees the internal information and control systems.

In discharging all of these responsibilities, the Board of Directors is supported by its Committees, in accordance with the roles set

out in their respective regulations and as described below.

The Risk and Compliance Committee

The Risk and Compliance Committee ("RCC") is a committee of the Board composed of non-executive directors. Its primary role is

to assist the Board of Directors in defining and monitoring the Group’s risk management and control policy.

In line with the responsibilities assigned under its regulations, the Committee supports the Board of Directors by performing,

among others, the following functions:

| p.65 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–it reviews, based on the strategic foundations set by the Board of Directors (or, where applicable, by the Executive

Committee), proposals related to the Group’s risk strategy, control, and management—such as the Risk Appetite

Framework and the Model—and submits them to the Board for consideration and, where appropriate, approval;

–it proposes, in alignment with the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework and the Model, the General Risk Management Policies

for the Group’s various risk types and supervises the internal control and information systems;

–it monitors the evolution of both financial and non-financial risks and their alignment with the Risk Appetite Framework

and the general policies, providing more detailed and frequent oversight than that performed by the Board of Directors or

the Executive Committee;

–it preliminarily assesses risk mitigation measures that fall under the authority of the Executive Committee or the Board of

Directors;

–it oversees the procedures, tools, and indicators used for Group-wide risk measurement and ensures compliance with

regulatory and supervisory requirements in risk-related matters;

–it analyzes the risks associated with projects deemed strategic for the Group or corporate transactions to be submitted to

the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee, within its scope of competence;

–it participates in the design of the remuneration policy, ensuring that it is consistent with sound and effective risk

management and does not encourage risk-taking that exceeds the Group’s risk tolerance; and

–it promotes the risk culture throughout the Group.

In 2025, the CRC has held 22 meetings.

Executive Committee

In order to maintain a comprehensive and integrated view of the Group’s overall business performance and that of its business

units, the Executive Committee monitors the evolution of the Group’s risk profile and the key metrics defined by the Board of

Directors. It is informed of any deviations or breaches of the metrics established in the Risk Appetite Framework and, where

appropriate, adopts the necessary measures, as outlined in this Model.

In addition, the Executive Committee supports the Board of Directors in the development of the foundations for the Risk Appetite

Framework, ensuring alignment and coherence with the Bank’s broader strategic and forward-looking decisions, as well as with its

management objectives.

Lastly, the Executive Committee assists the Board of Directors in decision-making related to business risk and reputational risk, in

accordance with its own regulations.

Other Committees

In addition to the functions carried out by the Risk and Compliance Committee and the Executive Committee, the Board of

Directors is also supported by other specialized committees in overseeing certain non-financial risks that fall within the purview of

the Risk and Compliance Committee. These include the Audit Committee, which is responsible for the supervision of accounting,

tax, and public reporting risks, in addition to its oversight function regarding the independent review activities performed by the

Internal Audit Area; and the Technology and Cybersecurity Committee, which oversees risks related to technology and

cybersecurity.

4.1.3. Risk Governance model within the executive domain

Article 435 (1) a), b), (2) d), e) CRR

EU OVA b), EU OVB b), d)

To carry out the Group’s risk management and control activities, BBVA’s corporate bodies rely on the executive areas, which

perform the functions assigned to them under the general policies (including the Model) and the remaining internal regulations.

These functions must be carried out in accordance with the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework and the management objectives

established by the corporate bodies.

Accordingly, the Board of Directors has defined a model for the management and control of financial and non-financial risks across

the Group, based on the three lines of defense model, with clearly defined and independent roles:

shape-259d25d21f07aa79.gif

Lines of defense Responsible Area Functions
First line of defense Executive areas,<br><br>depending on the type of<br><br>risk Manage and control financial and/or non-financial risks to which the Bank and its Group<br><br>entities are exposed during the development of their duties including risk identification,<br><br>measurement, monitoring, and reporting. Risk management and control shall be<br><br>conducted in accordance with external and internal regulations, while incorporating the<br><br>challenge function performed by the second and third lines of defense within their<br><br>respective areas of responsibility.
Second line of<br><br>defense Global Risk Management<br><br>(GRM)<br><br>Regulation & Internal<br><br>Control (R&IC) Acting independently from the first line of defense, it shall be responsible for identifying,<br><br>measuring, monitoring, and reporting the risks affecting the Group.<br><br>Establish (or submit to the corporate bodies for approval) the financial and/or non-<br><br>financial risk management and control frameworks across all executive areas of the Bank,<br><br>within their respective scopes.<br><br>Challenge how the executive areas manage and/or control their respective risks<br><br>throughout their life cycles; and<br><br>Conduct reviews of the Group’s risk management and control practices.
Third line of defense Internal Audit Conduct independent reviews of how the other executive areas fulfill their first and<br><br>second line risk management and control responsibilities.

The following section outlines, at a general level, the roles and responsibilities of the various executive areas involved in risk

management and control under this three lines of defense model, without prejudice to the specific functions assigned to them

under other applicable internal and external regulations in force at any given time.

Enterprise Risk Management Committee

To ensure a holistic view of all risks—both financial and non-financial—within key risk planning processes, the BBVA Group has

established the Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC). This is a high-level executive committee responsible for the

comprehensive management and control of risks.

The committee is co-chaired by the Group Heads of Global Risk Management (GRM) and Regulation & Internal Control (R&IC), and

includes other senior executives responsible for financial and non-financial risks across the Group, all of whom perform second line

of defense functions. Among its key responsibilities:

–It reviews and endorses the final proposals for the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework and the Model, prior to their

submission to BBVA’s corporate bodies for consideration and, where appropriate, approval. It also monitors compliance

with these frameworks throughout the year;

–It promotes a holistic risk management across the BBVA Group, integrating both financial and non-financial risks into the

Group’s planning processes and into the most relevant regulatory processes (e.g., ICAAP, ILAAP, or the Recovery Plan);

and

–It fosters a strong risk culture across the Group, encouraging informed and responsible decision-making aligned with

BBVA’s Purpose and values, and tracks its evolution over time.

| p.67 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Financial risk domain

BBVA has a Global Risk Management (GRM) area, which is responsible for:

–safeguarding the solvency of the Group and its constituent entities;

–supporting the definition of the Group’s strategy in relation to financial risk; and

–supporting the business development through independent and comprehensive financial risk management.

In this context, the GRM area ensures the consistent integration and application of the financial risk strategy across the Group, as

well as a uniform regulatory framework, infrastructure, and control environment for this type of risk. To this end, GRM is supported

by a committee structure that includes both first and second lines of defense units.

Head of Global Risk Management (GRM)

The Chief Risk Officer (CRO), who leads the Global Risk Management function, is appointed by BBVA’s Board of Directors and

reports to the Board on the evolution of the Group’s financial risks. Functionally, the CRO reports to the Chief Executive Officer and

is assigned the responsibilities defined in the General Policy on executive decision-making, as approved by the Board. Specifically,

the CRO performs the second line of defense function for financial risks and is granted the independence, authority, seniority,

experience, expertise, and resources necessary to perform this role effectively.

To better fulfill its responsibilities, the CRO relies, on the one hand, on an organizational structure composed of financial risk units

at the corporate level and the Internal Risk Control Unit. On the other hand, risk units are also embedded within the business units,

performing first line of defense functions.

Additionally, the CRO relies on a governance structure composed of various specialized committees, depending on the nature of

the risks under his/her responsibility. These culminate in the Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC), which serves as the

main executive-level committee for financial risks. Its objective is to develop the strategies, internal regulations, and infrastructure

necessary to identify, assess, measure, and manage the risks within its scope of responsibility that the Group faces in the course

of its business activities. In some cases, these may be subject to approval by BBVA's corporate governing bodies.

The GRMC carries out its functions assisted by various support committees which include:

–Global Credit Risk Management Committee: It is responsible for analyzing and decision-making related to wholesale

credit risk admission.

–Work Out Committee: Its purpose is to analyze and make decisions regarding the admission of wholesale credit risks of

customers classified as Watch List, "non-performing” or write-offs in accordance with the criteria established in the

Group, as well as to be informed of the decisions adopted by the Head in GRM WR of the Portfolio Surveillance & Work Out

function within its area of responsibility; it will also include the approval of proposals related to changes in the

classification of risks within its scope of responsibility; as well as the approval of other proposals that must be seen in this

Committee according to the established thresholds and criteria.

–Wholesale & Sustainability Risk Committee: Its purpose is the analysis, discussion and support for decision-making on all

those matters of wholesale credit risk management that impact or potentially impact the corporate practices, processes

and metrics established in the Policies, Standards and Frameworks for Action. In addition, it serves as a basis for the

development of the risk management model and its monitoring of the BBVA Group's insurance companies. Finally, it is

the main area of decision and monitoring of the lines of action for the integration of climate and environmental risk into

the Group's risk management framework.

–Portfolio Management Committee: it is the executive body responsible for ensuring a holistic view of all risks and

promoting the optimal mix and composition of portfolios under the constraints imposed by the Risk Appetite Framework

| p.68 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

("RAF"). In this way, the aim is to obtain an adequate return for the risks incurred through the cycle and to maintain a

robust financial position, reflected in the sufficiency of liquidity and capital to face stress situations.

–Risk Models Management Committee: It ensures an appropriate decision-making process regarding the planning,

development, implementation, use, validation and monitoring of the models required to achieve an appropriate

management of the Model Risk in the BBVA Group.

–Retail Credit Risk Committee: it ensures for the analysis, discussion and decision support on all issues regarding the retail

credit risk management that impact or potentially do in the practices, processes and corporate metrics established in the

General Policies, Rules and Operating Frameworks.

Also:

–Global Credit Committee of CIB: its purpose is to analyze and make decisions related to wholesale credit risk admission

from certain segments of BBVA Group's customer base in addition to receiving information about relevant decisions

adopted in this area.

–Global Operational Market and Counterparty Risk Committee: is the executive body responsible for ensuring adequate

operational management of these risks in all the group's units, through the design, approval and supervision of the

processes necessary for said management, including decision-making with respect to the most relevant operations.

–GRM Continuity Committee: as established by the Corporate Continuity Committee for the different areas, this

Committee is dedicated to analyzing and taking decisions in response to exceptional crisis situations, with a view to

managing the continuity and restoration of critical GRM processes, with a view to ensuring its operations have a minimum

impact through the Continuity Plan, which addresses crisis management and Recovery Plans.

–The Corporate Committee for Admission of Operational Risk and Product Governance aims to ensure the adequate

evaluation of initiatives with significant risk (new business, product, outsourcing, process transformation, new systems,

etc.) from the perspective of operational risk and reputational as well as the approval of the proposed control frameworks.

Corporate GRM units

The GRM units at the corporate level, as part of the second line of defense for financial risks, support the CRO in the development

of the elements used to define the proposal for the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework, general policies, internal regulations, and

global infrastructures—within the action framework approved by BBVA’s corporate governing bodies. They also ensure the

implementation of these elements and report—either directly or through the CRO—to BBVA’s corporate governing bodies.

Heads of Risk in business units

Each business unit is headed by a Local Head of Risk, who, within the scope of their first line of defense responsibilities, performs

risk management and control functions. This role is responsible for managing and controlling the financial risks of the

corresponding business area through the consistent application of the Group’s Risk Model, general policies, and other internal

regulations approved at Group level—adapting them, where necessary, to local requirements—and reporting accordingly to the

local corporate governing bodies.

The CRO shall be responsible for ensuring that local Risk units operate with full independence from the units directly linked to the

business and are guided by their own risk management criteria. To this end, the CRO assumes the following responsibilities:

–Set the performance objectives for the local Heads of Risk.

–Validate, or if necessary, adjust the performance evaluation of the local Heads of Risk conducted by their hierarchical

managers. In the event of a discrepancy, the opinion of the CRO shall prevail.

| p.69 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Approve the appointment of local Heads of Risk, with the right to veto such appointments, as well as the authority to

unilaterally remove them from their position.

In addition, the CRO has access to forums—such as the Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC)—to ensure appropriate

coordination with the local Heads of Risk in the execution of their financial risk management and control responsibilities.

Internal Risk Control

The Group has a dedicated Internal Risk Control Unit, whose Group-level head reports directly to the Group CRO. This unit acts as

a control function over the activities carried out by the GRM area and the Local Risk areas.

Specifically, the Internal Risk Control Unit is responsible for:

–verifying that the normative framework, models, processes, and measures established by GRM are appropriate and

sufficient for each type of financial risk;

–overseeing their implementation and performance, ensuring proper segregation of duties among units;

–challenging decisions made in GRM’s most relevant committees, applying an independent and expert perspective;

–conducting validation of risk models; and

–supporting the Risk and Compliance Committee in carrying out its responsibilities related to financial risks.

The Internal Risk Control function operates on a global and cross-cutting basis under a unified methodological framework that

covers the full lifecycle of financial risk management. It promotes a critical and analytical perspective, and actively fosters the

Group’s risk culture.

Non-financial risk domain

BBVA has a Regulation & Internal Control (R&IC) area, which, as a cross-functional unit serving all BBVA Group businesses, is

responsible for:

–supporting the definition of its strategy regarding non-financial risks; and

–assisting business areas in operating with integrity and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and self-

regulatory standards.

To this end, it defines the Group’s internal control model for non-financial risks, supervises its effectiveness, and ensures that non-

financial risks are managed and controlled by the executive areas in line with the guidelines approved by the corporate bodies and

by the R&IC area itself. This includes applying appropriate independent challenge by R&IC.

This area includes, among others, the Non-Financial Risk and Compliance units, as well as Risk Control Specialists, all of whom

perform second line of defense functions in the domain of other non-financial risks.

Group head of Regulation & Internal Control

The Group Head of Regulation & Internal Control (R&IC) is appointed by BBVA’s Board of Directors, upon proposal by the Risk and

Compliance Committee. This executive reports directly to the corporate bodies on the performance of their duties, which

reinforces their independence from the rest of the Group’s executive areas. The role is endowed with the authority, seniority,

experience, expertise, and resources necessary to carry out their responsibilities effectively.

As the person responsible for the second line of defense for non-financial risks, the Head of R&IC ensures that such risks within the

Group are managed and controlled in accordance with this Model and with the general policies for the various types of non-

| p.70 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

financial risk. This executive informs the corporate bodies about the status and evolution of the non-financial risks and internal

control framework and, where appropriate, proposes the adoption of corrective measures deemed necessary at any given time,

promoting a culture of integrity and compliance across the Group, and acting, in accordance with the BBVA Group’s Compliance

System and Statute, as the Chief Compliance Officer (the most senior executive responsible for the Compliance function).

To support decision-making, the Head of R&IC is backed by the Regulation & Internal Control Leadership Committee, the Group’s

primary executive forum for non-financial risk. This forum is responsible for:

–supporting the Head of R&IC in developing strategies, programs, projects, plans, internal regulations, and infrastructure

necessary to appropriately identify, assess, measure, manage, and control non-financial risks arising from the Group’s

activities;

–coordinating the implementation of the above in the areas responsible for managing and controlling material non-financial

risks; and

–monitoring, supervising, and controlling the main non-financial risks faced by the Group in the course of its activities; and

–proposing the inclusion of non-financial risks in the Risk Appetite Framework.

Non-Financial Risk, Compliance, and Risk Control Specialists Units

Within the Regulation & Internal Control (R&IC) area, the second line of defense for non-financial risks is composed of the following

units, whose heads report directly to the Group Head of R&IC:

–Non-Financial Risk unit, responsible, among other functions, for:

–submitting proposals to the corporate bodies regarding general policies for non-financial risk management, as

well as developing, implementing and supervising the application of the internal regulations that operationalize

those policies;

–defining a common methodology and shared tools to enable executive areas to manage and control the non-

financial risks within their remit, including the admission of operational risk within the Group;

–coordinating the transversal processes related to the management of non-financial risks.

–Compliance unit, responsible, in accordance with the Compliance Function System and Statute, among other duties, for:

–supporting the business areas in assessing the compliance risks inherent to BBVA Group activities by promoting,

prioritizing, and, where appropriate, defining and implementing plans and actions for their prevention and

management;

–establishing and/or proposing internal regulations, as well as the systems, tools, procedures, indicators, and

controls necessary for the management, control, and mitigation of compliance risk—including the management

of certain related processes;

–supervising and verifying the management of compliance risks in accordance with the internal regulations within

its scope of responsibility;

–conducting training and awareness programs for employees to foster a strong compliance culture; and

–reporting relevant compliance risk information to Senior Management and the corporate bodies.

–Risk Control Specialists , responsible, among other functions, for:

–defining a general, homogeneous framework across the Group for mitigating, controlling, and monitoring the

most relevant non-financial risks within each area’s scope of responsibility;

| p.71 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–participating in the definition of metrics, indicators, and limits that establish risk tolerance thresholds—both at

the Group and business unit level—and performing periodic follow-ups to ensure that the non-financial risk

profile remains within the defined parameters;

–challenging how executive areas manage their respective non-financial risks and promoting a consistent

management approach across the Group.

To support decision-making in the non-financial risk domain, the R&IC area has a governance model that enables the identification

and prioritization of relevant situations from a control and risk management perspective, and facilitates proper evaluation of

initiatives involving significant non-financial risks, including approval of their associated control environments.

This governance model is structured through, among others, the Regulation & Internal Control Leadership, the Operational Risk

Admission and Product Governance Committees, the Corporate Assurance Committees, the Internal Control Body for AML or the

Criminal Responsibility Committee.

Executive areas

All of the Group’s executive areas are responsible, as the first line of defense, for managing non-financial risks within their

processes, activities, products, systems, and third-party relationships, including activities relying on outsourced services.

To ensure proper management and control of non-financial risks, each area is supported by a Risk Control Assurer (RCA) function,

composed of individuals with the appropriate experience, expertise, and organizational standing. The RCA supports the area’s

most senior executive—and the area as a whole—in ensuring that non-financial risks are managed and controlled in line with the

general mitigation, control, and monitoring frameworks established by the Risk Control Specialists, within the defined

management parameters and applicable internal regulations.

Parent-Subsidiary risk management relationship model

In accordance with the BBVA Group’s General Corporate Governance Policy, the Group operates under a common risk

management and control framework that ensures integrated oversight. This framework consists of high-level guidelines—such as

the Risk Appetite Framework—and general policies, including the Model, which are approved by BBVA’s corporate bodies for the

entire Group.

To ensure that the risk strategy and risk management model are effectively implemented at the subsidiary level, a parent-

subsidiary governance model has been defined. This model includes a minimum catalog of decisions that must be adopted by the

corporate bodies of subsidiaries. These decisions provide for a governance structure that is aligned with and coordinated by the

parent company. Depending on the area of competence, it is the responsibility of the GRM or R&IC head of the respective business

unit to formulate the relevant proposals for submission to the subsidiary’s governing body for consideration and, if appropriate,

approval.

The approval of such decisions by the subsidiary’s corporate bodies entails the design and execution of a corresponding risk

monitoring and control plan, which will be overseen by the proposing area.

Notwithstanding the above, certain risk-related decisions falling within the authority of the subsidiary’s corporate bodies will

require prior endorsement by BBVA’s corporate bodies, in accordance with the provisions of the internal regulations in effect at

any given time.

In the specific case of the Spain and Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB) business areas—which are not legally independent

entities and therefore do not have their own corporate bodies separate from BBVA as the Group parent and transversal business

unit, respectively—any references in this document to “corporate bodies” shall, where applicable, be understood to refer to the

most senior executive responsible for the business area. In all other cases, they refer to BBVA’s own corporate bodies. Any actions

| p.72 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

involving proposals to these bodies shall be carried out in coordination with the Group’s Head of GRM and/or Head of R&IC, as

appropriate.

4.1.4. Risk appetite framework

Article 435 (1) b), e), f)

EU OVA a), b), c)

Elements

The Group’s Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) defines the Group’s target risk profile, including the level of risk the Group is willing to

assume in order to achieve its objectives, taking into account the organic development of its business. The structure and key

elements of the RAF are approved by the Board of Directors and are subject to regular review by the GRM and R&IC areas within

the Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC), and may also be updated following significant changes to the business

strategy or material corporate transactions.

The RAF is tailored to each of the Group’s key business areas and is structured around the following elements approved by the

Board of Directors:

–Risk Appetite Statement: articulates the general principles of the Group’s risk strategy and its target risk profile:

"The BBVA Group aims to achieve a solid risk-adjusted profitability throughout the cycle by developing a universal

banking business model. This model is based on values, centered on the needs and life goals of our clients, and prioritizes

sustainability as a lever for growth, operational excellence and the preservation of adequate business security and

continuity.

BBVA intends to achieve these goals while maintaining a moderate risk profile, understood as achieving profitability that is

commensurate with the risks incurred throughout the cycle, and maintaining a robust financial position reflected in

sufficient liquidity and capital to withstand stress scenarios.

Risk Management at BBVA is based on a holistic and forward-looking approach to all risks, enabling adaptation to the

disruption risks inherent to the banking business, while leveraging the capabilities offered by innovation and technological

evolution. The key pillars of risk management to promote responsible growth, with recurrent generation of value, are the

diversification of portfolios across geographies, the quality and profile of asset classes and client segments, anti-money

laundering and financing of terrorism prevention, the incorporation of the impact of climate change, and accompanying

our clients in achieving their life goals.”

–Core Statements: based on the Risk Appetite Statement, these define the Group’s general risk management principles in

the areas of solvency, liquidity and funding, and profitability and income recurrence.

–Core Metrics: quantitatively express the principles and target risk profile set out in the Risk Appetite Statement and the

corresponding Core Statements. These metrics are organized under a traffic light approach, with the following

thresholds:

–Management reference: a comfortable risk level for the Group.

–Maximum appetite: the highest risk level the Group is willing to accept in the normal course of business.

–Maximum capacity: the highest level of risk the Group could assume, which in some metrics is linked to

regulatory requirements.

–Statements by type of risk: based on the Core Statements, these outline the general principles for managing each specific

type of risk, ensuring alignment with the overall Risk Appetite Statement.

| p.73 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–By type of risk Metrics: based on the Core Metrics, these define specific indicators for each risk type. Each includes a

maximum appetite threshold to ensure consistency with the Risk Appetite Statement and Core Metrics.

In addition, the RAF includes a set of management limits and monitoring metrics that are defined at the executive level by the risk-

owning areas to support proactive risk management and ensure alignment with the key elements of the RAF approved by the

Board of Directors.

Each key business area has its own local Risk Appetite Framework, which consist of a local Risk Appetite Statement, Core

Statements and Metrics, and By Type of Risk Statements and Metrics. These must be consistent with the Group-level RAF but

tailored to the business area's specific context and approved by its respective governing bodies. Additionally, the local RAF

establishes, at the local executive level, a set of management limits and monitoring metrics that are aligned with and consistent

with the above.

Development process

The proposal for the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework is jointly developed by the GRM and R&IC areas, each within their

respective scope of responsibility. Both areas shall operate under robust governance models that ensure the proposal is properly

challenged and refined.

In this context, for financial risks, the Internal Risk Control Unit conducts an effective challenge of the proposal presented to the

Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC), whereas for non-financial risks, the corresponding statements and metrics are

analyzed by the Regulation & Internal Control Leadership, which includes the Group’s senior non-financial risk executives.

Once finalized, the Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC) is responsible for reviewing the RAF proposal prior to its

submission to BBVA’s corporate bodies for consideration and, where appropriate, approval, in accordance with the functions set

out in their respective regulations and described in the Model.

As with the Group-level RAF proposal, each business area's RAF proposal will be supported by solid governance models that

ensure effective challenge and review before being submitted to the corporate governing bodies (or the most senior executive) of

the respective business area. In addition, it will be ensured that the proposal is properly coordinated and aligned with the RAF

approved at Group level.

Integration of the RAF into the management

The integration of the Risk Appetite Framework into the Group’s day-to-day risk management relies on the following three

foundational elements:

–A consistent normative framework, headed by a set of general policies for the various risk types. These policies define the

basic management guidelines and are further developed through rules and procedures, as outlined in the Internal

Normative Framework. This normative framework is complemented by specific frameworks and programs that guide the

actions of executive areas to ensure appropriate risk management and control. Business units, in turn, adapt this

normative framework to local requirements and their specific characteristics, ensuring that each unit has clearly defined

decision-making, oversight, and control processes that are aligned with Group-wide general policies.

–The inclusion, within the Framework itself, of a set of management limits and monitoring metrics, defined by the GRM and

R&IC areas within their respective scopes. These indicators guide executive areas in the day-to-day management of risks,

helping to steer the Group’s risk profile toward the target risk level.

–Comprehensive risk management across the full lifecycle, with a tailored approach based on the nature of each risk type.

| p.74 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Monitoring of the RAF and management of breaches

To enable the corporate bodies to effectively perform their assigned risk oversight functions, the senior executives responsible for

risks must report regularly to them—with greater frequency and detail in the case of the Risk and Compliance Committee (RCC)—

on the evolution of the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework metrics. This ensures that the corporate bodies can verify the degree of

compliance with the risk strategy approved by the Board of Directors.

If, during the monitoring of these metrics, the executive areas detect a significant deviation or breach of the maximum appetite

threshold of the metrics that fall within the scope of the Board of Directors, they must promptly inform the RCC (via its Chair),

along with a proposal for corrective measures if applicable. This communication is coordinated through the General Secretariat.

Once reviewed by the RCC, the breach is then reported to the Executive Committee—as part of its responsibility to monitor the

Group’s risk profile—and to the Board of Directors at its next scheduled meeting. The Board will decide whether to adopt any

executive measures it deems necessary, including the potential revision of any RAF metric. To support this decision, the RCC will

submit all relevant information, including the analysis provided by the executive areas and its own assessment.

However, once the information has been analysed and the proposal for corrective measures reviewed by the CRC, the CDP may

adopt, for urgent matters and in accordance with applicable legal provisions, the Executive Committee may adopt measures that

would otherwise fall under the authority of the Board. These decisions must then be communicated to the RCC (via its Chair) and

reported to the Board of Directors at its next meeting.

In all cases, enhanced monitoring will be implemented for the breached metric—including more frequent and granular reporting if

needed—until the deviation is fully resolved. Updates will be provided to the corporate bodies in accordance with their respective

supervisory and control functions.

Additionally, the executive areas may establish reinforced monitoring and breach management models to anticipate or address

RAF metric breaches. Any such developments will be reported to the RCC, Executive Committee, and Board of Directors, following

the communication standards outlined in this section—or with greater frequency if deemed appropriate.

Management thresholds for fundamental metrics shall be established as early-warning alerts prior to exceeding the maximum risk

appetite, without requiring remediation plans if breached. A notification will occur at an executive level within the relevant area

(GRM or R&IC), with updates provided to the Corporate Bodies during periodic monitoring session.

At the business unit level, the senior GRM and R&IC executives of each area must report periodically—within their respective

scopes—to their local corporate bodies (or to the most senior executive, if no such bodies exist) on the evolution of their own RAF

metrics. This follows a structure consistent with the Group-level governance model.

4.1.5. Risk assessment, monitoring and reporting

Article 435 (1) c) CRR

EU OVA d)

The assessment, monitoring, and reporting of both financial and non-financial risks at the Group level enable the Model to maintain

a dynamic and forward-looking approach, ensuring compliance with the Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) approved by the Board,

even under adverse scenarios.

This process is integrated into the day-to-day activities of the GRM and R&IC units, both at the corporate level and within business

areas. Within the framework of the Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC), the process also ensures that the highest

executive level maintains a holistic view of the risks affecting the Group.

The process is structured across the following stages:

| p.75 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Identification (Risk Assessment) of the material risks to which BBVA is exposed. This includes identifying key risk events

(including emerging risks) as well as key vulnerabilities, both at the Group level and within individual business areas.

–Risk profile monitoring of the Group and the evolution of identified risk factors using a range of internal indicators, peer

comparisons, and market data, enabling the anticipation of future developments.

–Impact assessment of realized risk factors on RAF metrics under various scenarios, including stress scenarios.

–Response to undesirable situations and corrective measures proposal, enabling the Group to manage risk proactively

even before the undesired event materializes.

–Reporting: ensures that risk information is conveyed to the corporate bodies and senior management in a comprehensive

and reliable manner, in accordance with principles of transparency, accountability, accuracy, completeness, clarity,

relevance, timeliness, and confidentiality.

4.1.6. Internal regulation, resources and infrastructure

Article 435 (1) b) CRR

EU OVA b)

To ensure prudent and forward-looking risk management, as well as proper oversight and control, the Group relies on the following

key enablers:

–Internal regulation, comprising general policies (including the Model), rules, and procedures that define roles,

responsibilities, guidelines, and processes for risk management and control across the Group.

–A qualified team, composed of individuals with the necessary skills, experience, and technical capabilities, and sized

appropriately to the Group’s business activities. The composition and profile of the risk team will evolve over time based

on the nature and level of risks the Group faces, the analytical and technological capabilities required, and the specific

conditions in the markets where the Group operates.

–Appropriate methodologies and models, which support the measurement and management of different risk types, as well

as the assessment of capital required to absorb those risks

–Technology infrastructure and systems, which support the Risk Appetite Framework, enable the calculation and

measurement of variables, parameters, and data across different risk types, facilitate risk management and control, and

provide a platform for storing and leveraging data needed for risk oversight and reporting to both corporate bodies and

supervisory authorities.

–Data governance, which ensures that the Group has access to high-quality, sufficient data for its risk management

processes, based on principles of governance, infrastructure, accuracy and integrity, completeness, timeliness, and

adaptability.

All these components follow a global and consistent approach, delivering value both to the Group as a whole and to the individual

entities that comprise it, in alignment with corporate-level standards

4.1.7. Risk culture

Article 435 (1) e) CRR

EU OVA c)

BBVA has fostered a risk culture, grounded in the decisions and guidance issued by its corporate bodies. These have promoted

responsible risk management, aligned with the Group’s corporate culture and core values.

The Board of Directors and Senior Management actively promote a shared understanding of risk throughout the organization. This

shared vision is communicated to all areas and levels, so that all employees understand, manage, and control the financial and

| p.76 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

non-financial risks relevant to their role, in a consistent manner according to the type of risk, and in line with the highest standards

of integrity, ethical conduct, and compliance with applicable regulations.

This approach ensures that day-to-day decisions involving risk management and control are made based on a common set of

attitudes and behaviors across the organization. These are built on a clear understanding of the risks being assumed (awareness),

responsibility for one’s risk-related actions (accountability), a constructive environment (atmosphere) that promotes open

dialogue.

The Group’s risk culture is developed and reinforced through a coherent set of integrated levers, including the Risk Appetite

Framework, general policies and other internal regulations, decision-making processes, indicator-based monitoring and control

(KPIs/KRIs), ongoing training, internal communication, incentives, testing exercises, and internal audits.

The Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC), as the Group’s most senior executive body in this area, is responsible for

promoting, developing, and monitoring the risk culture across the organization. To this end, it is supported by the GRM and R&IC

areas, which actively contribute to its promotion, action planning, and structured reporting on its progress.

4.1.8. Transactions with related parties

Article 435 (1) f).ii) CRR

EU OVA a)

In addition to the provisions of the General Risk Management and Control Model, the BBVA Group has internal policies and

procedures in place to approve, supervise, and control related-party transactions and intra-group transactions.

In this regard, BBVA and other Group subsidiaries, in their capacity as financial entities, carry out transactions with their related

parties in the normal course of their business, all of which are not significant and are carried out under normal market conditions.

Additionally, BBVA Group has a resolution strategy defined by the SRB as Multiple Point of Entry (MPE), which is based, according

to the Financial Self-Sufficiency Principle and the Decentralized Management Principle, on a decentralized business model in

which the subsidiaries are substantially self-sufficient in terms of legal structure, governance, capital, funding relationships and

operations, subject, however, to the corporate policies established for the BBVA Group and to the general supervision and control

of the corporate areas. Under this model, and subject to these principles, funding operations for subsidiaries are limited and at

market prices.

Details of transactions with related parties and transactions with joint ventures and associates can be found in note 53 of the BBVA

Group Consolidated Financial Statements.

4.2.Credit and Counterparty Risk

image14.jpg

4.2.1. Scope and nature of the Credit Risk measurement and reporting

systems for capital framework purposes

Article 435 (1)  a), b), c), f) CRR

EU CRA a), b), c), d)

Credit risk arises from the probability that one of the parties to the financial instrument contract will default on its contractual

obligations due to insolvency or inability to pay and cause the other party to incur a financial loss.

It is the most relevant risk for the Group and includes the management of issuer, settlement and country risks, with counterparty

risk constituting an additional risk category within BBVA’s risk taxonomy.

The Group has a risk strategy established by the Board of Directors of the parent company, which establishes the Group's Risk

Appetite statement, core metrics and the statements and metrics by type of risk in which it materializes, as well as the General

Risk Management and Control Model.

The credit risk statement outlines BBVA's general principles and objectives in managing this risk, which are specified through a set

of metrics related to economic capital, asset quality, portfolio structure, and profitability. Maximum appetite thresholds are

established for these metrics, defining the Group's credit risk profile.

The Risk and Compliance Committee assists the Board of Directors in different areas relating to risk control and monitoring,

complementing these functions by submitting to the Board proposals on the Group's risk strategy, control and management. It

also establishes, in line with the Group's Risk Appetite Framework approved by the Board of Directors, the control and

management policies for the different risks of the Group.

The Risk and Compliance Committee, the Executive Committee and the Board itself adequately monitor the implementation of the

Group's risk strategy and profile.

Based on the risk strategy determined by the Board of Directors, and as part of the Risk Appetite Framework, the Global Risk

Management Committee approves the management limits structure that articulates the framework at the level of geographies,

risk types, asset classes and portfolios, including the proposed Asset Allocation management limits that are established on an

annual basis with the appropriate level of disaggregation.

Asset Allocation limits for portfolios, businesses and risks are defined, considering the established metrics, in terms of exposure,

capital consumption, profitability and composition of the portfolio mix, subject to the restrictions framework resulting from the

target risk profile definition. These limits are established through a combination of quantitative criteria aimed at maximising the

profitability–risk trade-off, based on the risk positioning and its alignment with business projections.

The Corporate Risk Area establishes individual, portfolio, sector and geographic risk concentration thresholds. These thresholds

are established in terms of EAD and Herfindahl indexes in order to limit the impact on capital consumption.

| p.78 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The Business Areas work in line with the global view and the defined metrics, optimizing in terms of profitability-risk, within the

Group's limits and policies, each of the portfolios for which they are responsible.

Existing gaps with regard to the target portfolio are identified at global level and submitted to the Business Areas, establishing

global and local plans to align the risk with the predefined target profile and taking into account the expected future evolution of

the portfolios.

For risk and capital management purposes, credit risk at BBVA is quantified using two main measures: expected loss ("EL") and

economic capital ("EC"). The expected loss reflects the average value of losses and is considered as business cost. However,

economic capital is the amount of capital considered necessary to cover unexpected losses arising from the possibility that actual

losses may exceed expected losses.

These risk measures are combined with profitability information within the value-based management framework, thus integrating

the profitability-risk binomial in decision-making, from the business strategy definition to the approval of individual loans, pricing,

the assessment of non-performing portfolios, incentives to the Group's areas, etc.

There are three essential parameters for obtaining the aforementioned measures (PE and CE): probability of default ("PD"), loss

given default ("LGD") and exposure at default ("EAD"), based mainly on the estimation of credit conversion factors ("CCF"), which

are generally estimated using the historical information available in the systems, and which are assigned to transactions and

customers depending on their characteristics.

In this context, credit rating tools (ratings and scorings) assess the risk of each client/transaction based on its credit quality

through a score, which is used in the allocation of risk metrics along with other additional information: age of facilities, loan-to-

value ratio, client segment, etc.

Section 4.2.7.1. of this document details the definitions, methods and data used by the Group in determining the own funds

requirements for the estimation of the probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and credit conversion factor (CCF).

4.2.2.Definitions and methodologies

4.2.2.1.Prudential definition of default

Article 442 a), b) CRR

EU CRB a), b), c)

The definition of default in the prudential field is included in Article 178 of Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013. This definition is

applicable both under the standardized approach and under the internal ratings-based (IRB) approach.

Likewise, for the purposes of the application of point (b) of Article 178(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, where any amount of

principal, interest or fee has not been paid at the date it was due, the Group recognises this as the credit obligation past due.

In 2021, the EBA Guidelines (EBA/GL/2016/07) and the Regulations on materiality thresholds (Delegated Regulation of the

European Commission 2018/171 and Regulation 2018/1845 of the European Central Bank) that develop the content of the

aforementioned article 178, entered into force. The modifications introduced cover aspects such as the calculation of past due

days, clarifications on the indicators of probable non-payment (“Unlikely to Pay”), the criteria for the classification to non-

defaulted status, definition of retail exposures and aspects related to documentation and external governance. During 2021, BBVA

completed the implementation of the prudential definition of default, both for portfolios under the standardised approach, as well

as portfolios under the IRB approach, once the relevant supervisory authorization has been received.

Currently, the BBVA Group considers that a default has occurred in relation to a certain obligor when at least one of the following

circumstances occurs:

| p.79 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

a.that the obligor has a delay for more than 90 consecutive days with respect to any significant credit obligation to the entity.

b.that the entity considers that there are reasonable doubts about the payment of all of its credit obligations to the entity itself,

the parent company or any of its subsidiaries, without resorting to actions such as the execution of guarantees.

In relation to the computation of past due days, an obligor is considered in default when the sum of the past due amounts in all its

credit obligations with the entity exceed the materiality thresholds (both absolute and relative) for more than 90 consecutive days.

The absolute threshold is set at €100 for retail exposures and €500 for wholesale exposures and the relative threshold at 1% of all

on-balance sheet exposures to the obligor.

Regarding the existence of reasonable doubts about payment, the following elements are considered as indicators of probability

of default:

A.Specific credit risk adjustments: an adjustment to the carrying amount as a result of a sharp deterioration in the credit risk

quality of the obligor is an indicator of probable default.

B.Sale of credit obligations with significant economic loss: a sale of a credit obligation against an obligor with a material

economic loss related to a deterioration in credit quality should be considered an indicator of default. When the economic loss

exceeds the 5% threshold, the credit obligations will be considered to be in default.

C.Distressed restructuring: it is considered that there is an indicator of probable default, and therefore the client must be

considered in default, when the restructuring or refinancing measures may result in a reduction of the financial obligation that

is considered to be caused by a material forgiveness or deferral of principal, interest or fees.

Specifically, unless proven otherwise, transactions that meet any of the following criteria will be reclassified to the default risk

category:

–They are supported by an inadequate payment plan.

–They Include contractual clauses that delay the reimbursement of the operation through regular payments.

–Present amounts derecognized from the balance sheet.

In any case, a restructuring will be considered impaired when the reduction in the net present value of the financial obligation is

greater than 1%.

D.Bankruptcy/Arrangement/Liquidation/Failure/Pre-arrangement of the client: These situations will be valued as indicators

of non-payment as long as this prevents or delays the payments of credit obligations to the institution.

E.Fraud: If credit fraud is identified before the default is recognized.

The definition of default is applied at the debtor level for wholesale counterparties. Therefore, the classification of any material

exposure of a client as defaulted, either because it is more than 90 past due days or due to any of the subjective criteria, implies

the consideration of all the client's exposures as default.

Regarding retail customers, the definition of default is applied at the contract level following risk management practices.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, when an operation of a retail client presents defaults of more than 90 days and this represents

more than 20% of the client's total balance, all its operations are considered in default.

Additionally, it should be noted that when operations of related entities with the holder are considered in default, including both

entities of the same group and those with which there is a relationship of economic or financial dependence, the operations of the

holder are also classified as default if after its analysis it is concluded that there are reasonable doubts about its total

reimbursement.

| p.80 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The classification of an operation as in default is carried out in such a way that each contract can only be either in default or non

default in its entirety.

With regard to transactions/customers classified as in default, it should be noted that they will cease to be classified as such when

no default trigger is still applicable, either because the client/transaction does not have material past due balances, that is, above

both materiality thresholds, for more than 90 consecutive days, either when the recovery process is considered complete in

accordance with the entity's recovery management or because no criterion of probable non-payment continues to apply. However,

in any case, at least three months must elapse from the moment in which the situation that triggered the non-payment ceased to

be fulfilled in order to stop classifying an operation in a defaulted situation as such. During this period, the obligor must show good

payment behaviour and an improvement in its credit quality. In restructuring processes, the minimum period will be one year.

4.2.2.2.Accounting definitions and methodologies

Article 442 a), b) CRR

EU CRB a), c), d)

The calculation of credit risk adjustments applicable to the BBVA Group's Consolidated Financial Statements follows the

provisions of IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments. This standard establishes an expected loss model to calculate aforementioned

provision for credit risk.

Credit risk provision is calculated for financial assets valued at amortised cost, debt instruments valued at fair value with changes

in accumulated other comprehensive income, financial guarantee contracts and other commitments. All financial instruments

measured at fair value through profit or loss are excluded from the impairment model.

Given the nature of the calculation of provisions under IFRS 9, all adjustments are considered specific credit risk adjustments for

the purposes of Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

Definition of impaired financial asset

According to IFRS 9, an asset is credit-impaired (stage 3) if one or more events have occurred and they have a detrimental impact

on the estimated future cash flows of the asset.

The definition of impaired asset under IFRS 9 is currently aligned with that of default used by the Group both for internal credit risk

management and for regulatory purposes, in accordance with the definitions established in the Guidelines mentioned in section

4.2.2.1, as well as in the CRR. This alignment facilitates the integration of both definitions in credit risk management, giving

coherence and consistency in the processes.

Definition of restructured exposure

For accounting purposes, the Group uses the concept of restructured exposure for a transaction in which, for economic or legal

reasons related to current or foreseeable financial difficulties of the holder (or holders), its financial conditions are modified in

order to facilitate the payment of the debt (principal and interest) because the holder is unable, or is expected to be unable, to

comply with those conditions in due time and form. In this respect, the definition used for accounting purposes is aligned with the

definition used for the purposes of Article 47b of the CRR.

| p.81 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

4.2.3.Exposure to credit risk

According to Article 5 of the CRR, with respect to the regulatory capital requirements for credit risk, exposure is understood to be

any asset item and all items included in the Group’s off-balance sheet accounts involving credit risk and not deducted from the

Group’s bank capital. Accordingly, mainly loan and advances to customers are included, with their corresponding undrawn

balances, letters of credit and guarantees, debt securities and capital instruments, cash and balances with central banks and

credit institutions, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, financial derivatives and intangible assets.

The credit risk exposure specified in the following sections of this document is broken down into credit risk according to the

standardised approach (Section 4.2.6), credit risk according to the advanced approach (Section 4.2.7), counterparty credit risk

(Section 4.2.8), securitisation credit risk (Section 4.2.9) and structural equity risk (Section 4.4.3).

The following table shows the main metrics of credit risk (including counterparty credit risk) by approach and exposure class as of

December 31, 2025:

Within the framework of the implementation of CRR3 and the transitional provisions applicable to IRB approaches, in 2025 the

Group developed a holistic modelling strategy aimed at assessing the suitability, scope and sustainability of internal credit risk

models.

As a result of this exercise, and subject to approval by the European Central Bank, the Advanced IRB (AIRB) approach has been

partially reversed in favour of the Foundation IRB (FIRB) approach or the Standardised approach for certain exposures of BBVA,

S.A. and BBVA México.

This action is part of the process of adapting to the new European regulatory framework and is intended to reinforce

methodological robustness, consistency in the calculation of APRs and alignment with supervisory expectations regarding internal

models.

During 2025, the evolution in exposure and RWA is due to the activity in the different portfolios, the variation of which will be

detailed in their respective sections.

See following sections for more information on the variations of RWA by standardised and IRB approaches.

The distribution of the Group's original exposure by geography (classification by country of the counterparty) is shown below:

During the second half of 2025 there was an increase in exposure, linked mainly to the organic growth of activity, particularly

lending to corporates and retail, and to a lesser extent, the off balance sheet exposures.

Non performing exposures, in constant terms, slightly increased from June 2025.

Similarly, the accumulated impairment and negative changes in fair value had a slight increase.

The following table shows the credit quality of performing and non-performing exposures according to the number of past due

days as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Throughout 2025, and specifically in the second half, activity grew in the main geographies where the Group operates. This growth

was due to the strong dynamism in lending, standing out United States where CIB operations are particularly noteworthy.

Meanwhile, in Turkey there has been a significant increase in Turkish lira and foreign currency lending across all products. In

Mexico, the increase has mainly occurred in the retail segment.

In terms of non-performing exposure, in constant terms, the slight increase is mainly explained by Turkey, where new

restructuring regulations have come into force, although this has been partially offset by portfolio sales and recoveries in the

wholesale segment. In South America, growth has mainly occurred in Argentina. Growth in other regions has been offset by the

decline at BBVA, S.A., which made two portfolio sales in the second half of the year.

Annex VIII is an extension of this table, showing the ten countries with the highest on-balance sheet exposures and the ten

countries with the highest off-balance sheet exposures as of December 31, 2025.

The distribution by counterparty sector of total and non-performing exposures of loans and advances, as well as their impairment

as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, are shown below:

4.2.4. Hedging and risk reduction policies. Supervision strategies and

processes

Article 435 (1) d) CRR

EU OVA g), EU CRA b)

In certain cases, maximum credit risk exposure is reduced by collateral, credit enhancements and other actions which mitigate the

Group’s exposure. The BBVA Group applies a credit risk hedging and mitigation policy deriving from a banking approach focused

on relationship banking. The existence of guarantees could be a necessary but not sufficient instrument for accepting risks, as the

assumption of risks by the Group requires prior evaluation of the debtor’s capacity for repayment, or that the debtor can generate

sufficient resources to allow the amortization of the risk incurred under the agreed terms.

The policy of accepting risks is therefore organized into three different levels in the BBVA Group:

–analysis of the financial risk of the transaction, based on the debtor’s capacity for repayment or generation of funds;

–the constitution of guarantees that are adequate, or at any rate generally accepted, for the risk assumed, in any of the

generally accepted forms: monetary, secured, personal or hedge guarantees; and

–assessment of the repayment risk (asset liquidity) of the guarantees received.

This is carried out through a prudent risk policy that consists of the analysis of the financial risk, based on the capacity for

reimbursement or generation of resources of the borrower, the analysis of the guarantee, assessing, among others, the efficiency,

the robustness and the risk, the adequacy of the guarantee with the operation and other aspects such as the location, currency,

concentration or the existence of limitations. Additionally, the necessary tasks for the constitution of guarantees must be carried

out - in any of the generally accepted forms (collaterals, personal guarantees and financial hedge instruments) - appropriate to the

risk assumed.

The procedures for the management and valuation of collateral are set out in the corporate general policies (retail and wholesale),

which establish the basic principles for credit risk management, including the management of collaterals assigned in transactions

with customers. The criteria for the systematic, standardized and effective treatment of collateral in credit transaction procedures

in BBVA Group’s wholesale and retail banking are included in the Specific Collateral Rules.

| p.98 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The methods used to value the collateral are in line with the best market practices and imply the use of appraisal of real estate

collateral, the market price in market securities, the trading price of shares in mutual funds, etc. All the collaterals received must

be correctly assigned and entered in the corresponding register. They must also have the approval of the Group’s legal units.

The valuation of the collateral is taken into account in the calculation of the expected losses. The Group has developed internal

models to estimate the realization value of the collaterals received, the time that elapses until then, the costs for their acquisition,

maintenance and subsequent sale, from real observations based on its own experience. This modeling is part of the LGD

estimation processes that are applied to the different segments, and is included within the annual review and validation

procedures.

The following is a description of the main types of collateral for each financial instrument class:

–Debt instruments held for trading: the guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or

counterparty are implicit in the clauses of the instrument (mainly guarantees of the issuer).

–Derivatives and hedging derivatives: in derivatives, credit risk is minimized through contractual netting agreements,

where positive- and negative-value derivatives with the same counterparty are offset for their net balance. There may

likewise be other kinds of guarantees and collaterals, depending on counterparty solvency and the nature of the

transaction (mainly collaterals).

–Other financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other

comprehensive income: the guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or counterparty are

inherent to the structure of the instrument (mainly personal guarantees).

–Financial assets at amortised cost:

a.Loans and advances to credit institutions: these usually have the counterparty’s personal guarantee or pledged

securities in the case of reverse repurchase agreements (repos).

b.Loans and advances to customers: most of these loans and advances are backed by personal guarantees

extended by the customer. There may also be collateral to secure loans and advances to customers (such as

mortgages, cash collaterals, pledged securities and other collateral), or to obtain other credit enhancements

(bonds or insurances).

c.Debt securities: the guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or counterparty are

inherent to the structure of the instrument.

–Financial guarantees, other contingent risks and drawable by third parties: these have the counterparty’s personal

guarantee or other types of collaterals.

4.2.5.Information on credit risk mitigation techniques

4.2.5.1.Processes and use of on- and off-balance sheet netting

Article 453 a) CRR

EU CRC a)

Derivative contracts are executed under master agreements —such as ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association) or

CMOF (Contrato Marco de Operaciones Financieras)— that incorporate netting mechanisms.

The specific clauses of each agreement determine which transactions may be subject to netting, thus establishing the scope of the

contractual offsetting.

| p.99 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The application of counterparty risk mitigation techniques, such as position netting and the use of collateral agreements,

contributes to reducing the total exposure, understood as the sum of the current market value and the potential associated risk.

Financial assets and liabilities may be netted in certain cases. In particular, they are presented for a net amount on the

consolidated balance sheet only when the Group's entities satisfy the provisions of IAS 32-Paragraph 42, so they have both the

legal right to net recognised amounts, and the intention of settling the net amount or of realizing the asset and simultaneously

paying the liability.

4.2.5.2.Hedging based on collateral

4.2.5.2.1.Management and valuation policies and procedures

Article 453 b) CRR

EU CRC b)

The procedures for management and valuation of collateral are included in the Specific Collateral Rules, or in the Policies and

Procedures for Retail and Wholesale Credit Risk.

These Policies and Procedures lay down the basic principles of credit risk management, which includes the management of the

collateral assigned in transactions with customers.

Accordingly, the risk management model jointly values the existence of a suitable cash flow generation by the debtor that enables

them to service the debt, together with the existence of suitable and sufficient guarantees that ensure the recovery of the credit

when the debtor’s circumstances render them unable to meet their obligations.

The valuation of collaterals is carried out in a rigorous and prudent manner, with the necessary information to determine it and

with extreme caution in the use of appraisal values and any other type of valuation by independent experts. At the time of granting

credit, unless local regulations provide for a shorter term, individual appraisals / independent expert appraisals must be available

for a maximum age of one year in new origination proposals or that imply an increase in the amount over the existing risk; and

three years in proposals on existing risk such as subrogations, forbearance, financing of assets on the group's balance sheet, etc.

In the case of non-performing assets, as well as in restructuring and refinancing, the appraisal review period will be twelve months.

The milestones under which the valuations of the collaterals must be updated in accordance with local regulation are established

under these prudential principles.

Random or rotating case assignment processes must be established to ensure the independence in the activity of the

professionals or companies in charge of the appraisal with respect to the credit originating units. The valuation of non-real estate

guarantees will also be carried out considering the general principles of prudence and rigour. Similarly, the independence and

objectivity of the valuations is a critical factor that must be guaranteed through the use of external sources or the value contrast

with them. Given the heterogeneity of this type of guarantees, in general the validity of the valuations must be ensured through

documentation (for example, pro-forma invoices for movable property, certificates of deposits) or through consultation processes

of market values (eg. in securities accounts, investment funds).

With respect to the entities that carry out the valuation of the collateral, principles are in place in accordance with local regulations

that govern the level of customer loyalty and dependence on the Group, along with related processes. These valuations will be

updated by statistical methods, indices or appraisals of goods, consultation of internal and external sources, etc. which shall be

carried out under the generally accepted standards in each market and in accordance with local regulations.

For the validation of the collaterals, the Legal Services, support in the formalisation process ensuring that the requirements are

met so that the guarantees are duly established in the corresponding jurisdiction. The guarantees are required to be included in

the corresponding policies, duly guarded and registered in the official formats and bodies established, in order to fully preserve

their recovery effectiveness. In general, these policies must include the general circumstances of the guarantees, the description

of the assets that act as collateral, the obligations and rights of the parties involved and the related insurance.

| p.100 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Additionally, a critical review of the valuation is carried out, focusing in particular on aspects such as its understandability, the

prudence of the assumptions and the clear and reasonable identification of other comparable properties used as a reference to

determine the appraised value. In the wholesale sphere, the possibility of carrying out a due diligence will be considered when the

risk or complexity of the operation so requires.

4.2.5.2.2.Types of collateral

Article 453 c) CRR

EU CRC c)

As collateral for the purpose of calculating bank capital, the Group uses the hedging established in the solvency regulations. The

following are the main types of collateral available in the Group:

–Mortgage Guarantees: The collateral is the property upon which the loan is arranged.

–Financial guarantees: Their object is any one of the following financial assets, as per articles 197 and 198 of the solvency

regulation.

–Cash deposits, deposit certificates or similar instruments.

–Debt securities issued for the different categories.

–Shares or convertible bonds.

–Other goods and rights used as a real collateral: The following property and rights are considered acceptable as

collateral as per Article 200 of the CRR.

–Cash deposits, deposit certificates or similar instruments held in third-party institutions other than the lending

credit institution, when these are pledged in favour of the latter.

–Life insurance policies pledged in favour of the lending credit institution.

–Debt securities issued by other institutions, provided that these securities are to be repurchased at a pre-set

price by the issuing institutions at the request of the holder of the securities.

4.2.5.3.Hedging based on personal guarantees

Article 453 d) CRR

EU CRC d)

According to the solvency regulations, unfunded credit protection consists of personal guarantees, including those arising from

credit insurance, that have been granted by the providers of protection defined in Articles 201 and 202 of the solvency regulation.

In the category of Retail exposure under the advanced measurement approach, unfunded credit protection impacts the PD and

does not reduce the amount of the credit risk in EAD.

4.2.5.4.Amount of the credit risk mitigation

Article 453 f), g) CRR

This section shows the amounts of credit risk mitigation techniques.

In line with the EBA standards published in June 2024 (EBA/ITS/2024/05), the following table shows the book value of secured

and unsecured exposures, including all guarantees recognised for accounting purposes, regardless of their use for capital

purposes.

During 2025, a non significant variation has been observed in the coverage level, which reached as of December 31, 2025 a

percentage of 33%, slightly lower than the coverage recorded in June (35%).

Currently, the Group does not use credit derivatives as a credit risk mitigation technique.

For a breakdown of the specific mitigation techniques for the standardised and IRB approaches to credit risk, see sections 4.2.6.2.

y 4.2.7.2. respectively.

4.2.5.5.Risk concentration

Article 453 e) CRR

EU CRC e)

BBVA has established the measurement, monitoring and reporting criteria for the analysis of large credit exposures that could

represent a concentration risk, with the aim of ensuring their alignment with the risk appetite framework defined in the Group.

Particularly, measurement and monitoring criteria are established for large exposures at the level of individual concentrations,

concentrations of retail portfolios, wholesale sectors and geographies.

A quarterly measurement and monitoring process has been established for reviewing concentration risk.

The main measures to prevent risk concentration in BBVA are:

–At both the Group level and the subsidiaries belonging to the banking group, the information of customers (groups) that

hold the largest exposures (greater than 10% of fully loaded Tier1; in the subsidiaries their level of own funds are used) is

available. If a customer presents a concentration that exceeds the thresholds, the reasonableness of maintaining this

exposure must be justified, or the measures to reduce the exposure be explained (for example, cancellation of risk) in

writing every year.

| p.102 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–As an additional support to management, the portfolio concentration is calculated using the Herfindahl index. To date, the

concentration at Group level is “very low”.

–The credit risk mitigation does not have a significant impact on the Group’s large exposures, being used solely as a

mechanism for mitigating intra-group risk (“standby letters of credit” issued by BBVA in favor of the banking Group’s

subsidiaries).

–The concentration to different industries is calculated based on the risk aggregation by economic activity. BBVA uses a

classification that groups activities into 16 sectors. All of them are under the acceptable thresholds at the Group level.

–In retail portfolios, the analysis is carried out at subportfolio level (mortgage and non-mortgage retail). Both are below the

acceptable thresholds at the Group level.

4.2.6.Information on the standardised approach

4.2.6.1.Identification of external rating agencies and credit ratings assignments

Article 444 a), b), c), d) CRR

EU CRD a), b), c), d)

The external credit assessment institutions (ECAIs) appointed by the Group to determine the risk weights applicable to its

exposure are as follows: Standard & Poors’, Moodys, Fitch and DBRS.

The ratings of ECAI are used for exposures to wholesale portfolios, basically those involving “Sovereigns and central banks” in

developed countries, and “Financial Institutions”.

In cases where a counterparty has ratings from different ECAIs, the Group follows the procedure laid down in Article 138 of the

Solvency Regulations, which specifies the order of priority to be used in the assignment of ratings.

When two different credit ratings made by designated ECAIs are available for a rated exposure, the higher risk weight will be

applied. However, when there are more than two credit ratings for the same rated exposure, use is to be made of the two credit

ratings that provide the lowest risk weights. If the two lowest risk weights coincide, then that weight will be applied; if they do not

coincide, the higher of the two will be applied.

The correspondence between the alphanumeric scale of each agency used and the risk categories used by the Group are defined

in the Implementing Technical Standards on the mapping of ECAIs credit assessment under Article 136(1) and (3) of Regulation

(EU) No. 575/2013; complying with the provisions of Article 136 of the CRR.

The number of cases and the amount of the assignments of credit ratings to public share issuances in the banking book are not

relevant for the Group in terms of credit admission and issuer risk management.

4.2.6.2.Exposure values before and after the application of credit risk mitigation

techniques

Articles 444 d), 453 g), h), i) CRR

The original exposure net of value adjustments and provisions, before and the application of after risk mitigation techniques and

credit conversion factors (CCF), as well as RWA density for each exposure category, according to the standardised approach, are

shown below, excluding securitisation and counterparty credit risk exposure:

The increase in exposure observed during the period is mainly explained by the increase in the retail, corporate and sovereign

portfolios, although this organic growth is partially attenuated by the exchange rate effect, especially in the case of retail and

corporate. On the other hand, as a result of regulatory impacts, there has been a significant increase in the retail portfolio following

the reclassification of certain portfolios in Mexico and Spain from the advanced approach to the standardised approach.

The average density in these categories remains largely unchanged, and therefore the evolution of RWA is in line with this growth

in exposure.

In addition, the following tables show the exposure net of provisions, after the application of credit risk mitigation techniques and

CCFs by risk weights and exposure categories under the standardised approach, excluding securitisation positions and

counterparty credit risk exposure.

During the period, there were significant variations in exposure, primarily driven by an increase in sovereign exposures (0% RW),

reflecting growth in the fixed-income portfolio and central bank balances. Simultaneously, corporate and retail exposures (100%

and 75% RW, respectively) rose due to heightened commercial activity. These increases were partially offset by foreign exchange

headwinds in specific geographies. Furthermore, regulatory adjustments led to a notable increase in the retail portfolio following

the reclassification of specific portfolios in Mexico and Spain from the Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) approach to the Standardised

Approach.

Exposure net of provisions and after applying CCF and CRM related to counterparty credit risk are shown in table EU CCR3 of

Section 4.2.8.2.2 of this report.

The following table shows the flow statements of credit and counterparty credit risk RWA under standardised approach during the

fourth quarter of 2025:

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the risk-weighted assets under the standardized approach increased substantially, driven by the

partial reversal of the IRB approach for retail portfolios in BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico. Aside from this factors, RWA experienced

organic growth linked to increased activity in Turkey and South America, most notably in Argentina.

There was no material impact from foreign exchange fluctuations in this period.

4.2.6.3.Equity exposure by method

Article 438 e) CRR

Under the new CRR3 framework, equity exposures are calculated using standard methodology. To this end, different risk weights

are established depending on the type of asset in question:

–Exposures to unlisted companies will generally receive a risk weight of 400%.

–Exposures arising from legislative programmes will receive a risk weight of 100%.

–Exposures to central banks will receive a risk weight of 0%.

–Exposures to funds not established in the European Union will receive a risk weight of 1,250%.

–All other equity exposures will receive a risk weight of 250%.

As an exception, the risk weighting applied on July 8, 2024 may continue to be applied to exposures that may be considered

strategic for the institution.

The following table shows equity exposures broken down by type of exposure, as of December 31, 2025 and as of June 30, 2025.

The above table is shown according to the CRR EBA ITS where the first column includes the exposure value (EAD) of the portfolios

subject to the IRB method, while the second column includes the value of the exposures subject to the standard and IRB

approaches.

The entry into force of CRR3 on 1 January 2025, as well as the new holistic model strategy carried out at the Group level, has led to

substantial changes in the internal models used by the Group to calculate capital requirements for credit risk, as well as its

corresponding roll-out plan.

The following chart shows the exposures distributed by permanent partial use of the standard method, subject to roll-out plans

and those that are already subject to the IRB method:

CHART 12. DISTRIBUTION OF EXPOSURE BETWEEN THE USE OF PPU, IRB AND ROLLOUT PLANS

chart-00c6fc162cbb417da10.gif

The main types of rating models used in the IRB portfolios are ratings for wholesale portfolios and proactive and reactive scorings

in the case of retail portfolios.

The rating models give contracts/customers a score that orders customers according to their credit quality. This score is

determined, among others, by the characteristics of the transactions, economic and financial conditions of the customer,

information on payment behaviour, and credit bureau.

The approval of the models by the supervisor includes both own estimations of the probability of default (PD), loss given default

(LGD) and the internal estimation of credit conversion factors (CCFs).

As an IRB entity, the BBVA Group has defined the IRB Strategy at consolidated level, including the IRB Roll-Out plan (see table EU

CR6-A for more information).

4.2.7.1.2.Structure of internal rating systems and relationship between internal and external

ratings

Artículo 452 f), i) CRR

EU CRE e), i)

The Group has rating tools for each exposure category listed in the CRR3.

| p.115 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The retail portfolio has scoring tools for determining the credit quality of transactions on the basis of information on the

transaction itself and on the customer. The scoring models are algorithms calculated using statistical methods that score each

transaction. This score reflects the transaction’s level of risk and is in direct relation to its probability of default (PD).

These decision models are the basic tool to decide who should receive a loan and the amount to be granted, thereby contributing

to both the arrangement and management of retail-type loans.

For the wholesale portfolio, the Group has rating tools that, unlike scorings, do not assess transactions but rather customers. The

Group has different tools for rating the various customer segments: small companies or corporates. In those wholesale portfolios

where the number of defaults is very low (corporates, financial institutions) the internal information is supplemented by the

benchmarks of external rating agencies.

The PD estimates made by the Group are transferred to the Master Scale, enabling a comparison to be made with the scales used

by external agencies.

4.2.7.1.3.Use of internal estimates for purposes other than the calculation of regulatory capital

requirements

The Group’s internal estimates are a critical component of management based on value creation, giving rise to criteria for

assessing the risk-return trade-off.

These measures have a broad range of uses, from the adoption of strategic business decisions through to the individual admission

of transactions.

Specifically, internal estimates are used in everyday business in support of credit risk management through their inclusion in

admission and monitoring processes, as well as in the pricing of transactions.

| p.116 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The management use of performance metrics that consider expected loss, economic capital and risk-adjusted return enables the

monitoring of portfolios and the assessment of non-performing positions, among others.

4.2.7.1.4.Process for managing and recognizing the effects of credit risk mitigation

Article 435 (1) d) CRR

EU CRA b)

Mitigation is an iterative process whose purpose is to recognize the benefits of the existence of collateral and guarantees, ordering

them from the highest to the lowest credit quality.

The Group uses risk mitigation techniques for exposure pertaining to the wholesale portfolio by replacing the debtor’s RW with

that of the guarantor, in cases in which the latter is eligible and its RW is lower than the debtor’s. In retail admission processes the

guarantor is included in the scoring itself.

Collateral in IRB models is recognised through the LGD and must meet eligibility criteria based on maturity and minimum exposure

coverage, and making the necessary adjustments depending on the type of existing collateral, financial or real.

4.2.7.1.5.Control mechanisms for internal rating models

Article 452 c), d), e) CRR

EU CRE b), c), d)

The Group has a management framework for rating models that covers all the phases of the model  life-cycle: from the

identification of a need, to planning and the initiation of model development or modification, through the second line of defense

review, to its implementation, use, and monitoring.

Model Development

The development of a model is an activity that requires the involvement of different stakeholders, experience and multidisciplinary

technical knowledge. GRM Data & Advanced Analytics is the area responsible for the development of BBVA Group's risk models.

As a global function, it must ensure that the models are developed according to the best market practices, that the model

development process is homogenous within the Group and an efficient management of existing resources.

Every model development must be properly documented. A correct and updated documentation allows to reduce the

dependencies of key people and facilitates control, review and training tasks, mitigating the model risk.

An outsourcing of specific activities in the development of risk models is possible, but in no case does this imply a transfer of

responsibility outside the Group.

The Group has internal policies where all concepts are defined.

Model Approval

The Group's Chief Risk Officer (CRO) is the head of the risk function in the executive line and, in order to better perform his duties,

he is supported by a specific committee structure.

The IRB Rating System and IMA Models Change Rule defines the internal governance process that must be followed in order to

start using the BBVA Group's risk models, as defined in the Model Risk Management Policy, indicating the committees that must

authorize the new models and their changes (methodological changes, changes in scope and usage), as well as the cessation of its

use, depending on the materiality of the changes introduced in the model.

The Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC) is constituted as a forum for advising and supporting the Group Risk Director for

the exercise of the functions and decision-making that the latter is responsible for adopting. This includes with regards to model

| p.117 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

risk, among other functions, approving both the material modifications of the Internal Models that are used in the Calculations of

Regulatory Capital  (IRB; IMA) as well as of new models that will be used to this end.

Moreover, the Risk Models Management Committee (RMMC) reports to the GRMC, providing it with adequate technical support in

decisions associated with model risk management. One of its functions is the review, prior to its presentation to the GRMC, of the

requests for new Internal models that will be for Regulatory Capital calculations or the changes  to be introduced in the existing

ones, acting in a delegated manner to approve  those changes of less relevance or immaterial.

Given its technical component, the presidency is exercised by the Head of GRM Data & Advanced Analytics. In addition to including

members of GRM's Senior Management and the responsible for GRM Internal Control, the committee is also complemented by

members of the GRM Data & the GRM Internal Validation COE.

Model Monitoring

A comprehensive  monitoring framework allows to identify unexpected behaviour incorrect model usages and even to anticipate

when changes in the risk profile of portfolios or products require corrective actions to be taken. The risk rating models are

monitored with a frequency appropriate to the nature of the model, the availability of new data, modelling techniques and the

importance of their use in management.The monitoring  is analysed with a double perspective: performance and use.

Performance monitoring aims to detect deficiencies in the behaviour of risk rating models, anticipating their possible deterioration

over time. It is a mechanism to determine if the models are working correctly, helping to verify that the components of the model

work as expected. The performance monitoring framework makes possible to identify weaknesses and establish the necessary

action plans to ensure its proper functioning. This analytical framework, a fundamental component of risk model planning,

establishes the minimum criteria that must be taken into account, as well as the metrics and thresholds that allow warning of

unwanted behaviour.

Usage monitoring aims to verify that the model is effectively used in the risk management process, for the uses defined, and in an

appropriate way. This control mechanism continuously allows the detection of deviations from the intended use of the models, as

well as the establishment of action plans for their correction.

In addition, the Group has an area independent from the developers and users of the rating models, whose main function is to

backtest the models, in order to ensure  their accuracy, robustness and stability (see “Validation Process” in section 4.2.7.1.7)

On the other hand, a series of reports are periodically presented to the governing bodies for their review, which  purpose of is to

monitor the main risk indicators and management metrics, the presentation of follow-up reports and plans to redirect exceeded

indicators with respect to the action frameworks approved annually.

4.2.7.1.6.Description of the internal rating process

Article 452 f) CRR

EU CRE e)

There follows a description of the internal rating process by type of customer:

–Financial institutions: The relevant risk unit periodically rates these types of clients, and constantly monitors the

evolution of these clients in national and international markets. External ratings are a key factor in the ratings assignment

for financial institutions.

–Large Companies: Includes the rating of exposure with corporate business groups. The result is affected both by

indicators of business risk (evaluation of the competitive environment, business positioning, regulation, etc.) and financial

risk indicators (size of the group by sales, cash generation, levels of debt, financial flexibility, etc.).

| p.118 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

In accordance with the characteristics of the large companies, the rating model has a global nature with specific algorithms

according to the sector of activity and geographical adaptations. The rating of these customers is generally calculated within the

framework of the annual risk review process, or the admission of new operations.

The responsibility for the assessment lies with the units proposing the risk, while those responsible of approvals, validate it when

the decision is taken.

–Medium-sized companies: This segment also takes into account quantitative factors derived from economic and

financial information, and qualitative factors that are related to the age of the company, the sector, management quality,

etc. and alert factors derived from risk monitoring.

As in the Corporate segment, the rating tends to run parallel to the admission process, so the responsibility for rating lies with the

unit proposing the risk, while the decision-making level is in charge of validating it.

–Small-sized companies: As in the case of medium-sized companies, this segment also takes into account quantitative

factors derived from economic and financial information, and qualitative factors that are related to the age of the

company, the sector, management quality, etc. and alert factors derived from risk monitoring. Similarly, the rating tends

to run parallel with the admission process, so the responsibility for rating is with the unit proposing the risk, while the

decision-making level is in charge of validating it.

–Specialised Lending: To classify this segment, the Group has chosen to use the approach of slotting criteria, as included

in the Basel Accord of June 2004 and in the solvency regulations (CRR Article 153.5).

–Developers: The rating of real estate developers covers the rating of both customers who are developers and the

Property Projects unit. Its use makes it easier to monitor and rate projects during their execution phase, as well as

enriching the admission processes.

–BBVA Mexico Corporates: This segment also takes into account quantitative factors derived from economic and financial

information and bureau information, as well as qualitative factors related to the age of the company, the sector, the

quality of its management, etc. The rating tends to run parallel to the admission process, so that responsibility for the

rating is with the unit originating the risk, while the decision-making body validates it.

In general in the wholesale area, the rating of customers is not limited to admission, as the ratings are updated according to new

information available at any time (economic and financial data, changes in the company, external factors, etc.).

–Retailers: Retail exposure is rated by models developed internally by the Entity that allow the credit risk of portfolios to be

assessed. The model score can be assigned at the customer or product level and transformed into a probability of default,

allowing for management based on risk groups. Depending on the information available, ratings can be reactive or

proactive. The reactive ratings are generated from the customer's request to take out a product, while the proactive

ratings are periodically calculated on the basis of the information available, internal and external, on the customer's

payment behaviour. Proactive models allow offers of pre-approved products, which are instrumentalised in mass

marketing campaigns. Ratings are integrated into admission and monitoring processes for retail portfolios, ensuring

adequate credit risk management.

The rating process is as follows for each specific category of retail exposure:

a.Mortgages - Spain:

–Reactive processes: The manager collects data on the customer (personal, financial, banking relationship information)

and on the transaction (LTV, amount, maturity, destination etc.) and calculates the rating of the transaction with the

scoring. The decision on whether it is approved is made based on the results of applying the model and risk policies

| p.119 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Proactive processes: Each month all the customers who have asset positions in credit cards, consumer finance or

mortgages and first and second in liability seniority, are rated according to information on their behavior.

4.2.7.1.7.Definitions, methods and data for estimating and validating risk parameters

Article 452 f) CRR

EU CRE e)

The estimation of the parameters is based on the uniform definition of default established at Group level. Specifically, for a facility

or customer to be considered in a situation of default, the provisions of current regulations must be met.

Specifically, there are two approaches in the Group for considering default and estimating parameters:

–The facility level approach is applied within the sphere of retail risk. Each customer transaction is handled as an

independent unit in terms of credit risk. Therefore, non compliance with credit obligations to the bank is handled at the

transaction level.

–The obligor level approach is applied to the remainder portfolios. The significant unit for defining default is the customer’s

sum of contracts, which enter a situation of default en masse when the customer defaults.

Furthermore, to avoid including non material defaults in the estimates, non-performing volumes have to pass through a materiality

filter that depends on the type of customer and transaction, according to what is established by the EBA’s Definition of Default

guidelines.

Estimating parameters

In the case of Spain and Mexico, the Group has an internal information system denominated CORE that reflects exposure to credit

risk in the Group’s different portfolios included in advanced foundation and slotting criteria approaches.

The Group’s rating systems ensure the availability of historical data necessary for estimating the following parameters:

1.Advanced Approach: Probability of Default (PD), Loss Given Default (LGD), and Credit Conversion Factors (CCF). These

parameters are subsequently used in the calculation of regulatory capital under the advanced approach, as well as in the

estimation of economic capital and expected credit loss for credit risk.

2.Foundation Approach: Probability of Default (PD), which is used in the calculation of regulatory capital, economic capital, and

expected credit loss.

3.Slotting Approach for Specialised Lending: Assignment of regulatory categories based on a set of prescribed qualitative and

quantitative factors. These factors, combined with the maturity of the exposure, determine the risk-weighted asset density

Other sources of information for the Bank may be used in addition, depending on any new needs detected in the estimation

process.

In the case of low default portfolios (LDP), in which the number of defaults tends to be insufficient for obtaining empirical

estimates, use is made of data from external agencies that are merged with the internal information available and expert criteria.

The following shows the estimation methodologies used for the PD, LGD and CCF risk parameters, for the purpose of calculating

regulatory capital requirements.

Probability of default (PD)

The methodology used for estimating the PD in cases that have a sufficiently large mass of internal data is based on the creation of

risk groups. The groups proposed with a view to calibration are defined by grouping contracts together, seeking to achieve intra-

| p.120 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

group homogeneity in terms of credit quality and differentiation with all the other risk groups. The largest possible number of

groups is defined in order to allow a suitable discrimination of risk.

The fundamental metric used for making these groupings is the score, being supplemented by other metrics relevant to PD that

are proven to be sufficiently discriminating depending on the portfolio.

Once the risk groups have been defined, the average empirical PD recorded for each one is obtained and adjusted to represent the

likely range of variability of the parameter.

In low default portfolios (LDPs) empirical PDs observed by external credit rating agencies are used, in order to derive robust PD

estimates for the internal risk group classifications.

Loss given default (LGD)

As a general rule, the method used to estimate loss given default (LGD) in portfolios with a sufficient number of defaults is

Workout LGD. Here, the LGD of a contract is obtained as a quotient of the sum of all the financial flows recorded during the

recovery process that takes place when a transaction defaults, and the transaction’s exposure at the time of default.

This estimate is made by considering all the historical data recorded in internal systems. When making the estimates, there are

transactions that have already defaulted but for which the recovery process is still ongoing. The loss given default recorded at the

time of the estimate is therefore higher than it will ultimately be. The necessary adjustments are made in these cases so as not to

distort the estimate.

These estimates are made by defining uniform risk groups in terms of the nature of the operations that determine the LGD. They

are made in such a way that there are enough groups for each one to be distinguishable and receive a different estimate.

The loss given default (LGD) rates estimated according to the internal databases the Bank holds are conditioned to the moment of

the cycle of the data window used, since loss given default varies over the economic cycle. Hence, the following concepts can be

defined: long-run loss given default (LRLGD), the downturn loss given default (DLGD), and loss given default best estimate (LGD

BE).

The DLGD is the key parameter to calculate the risk weighted assets and represents the LGD observed in an economic downturn.

Finally, LGD BE is determined according to the loss given default (LGD) observed in the BE period, which aims to cover the defaults

closest in time to the present, in other words those that have been produced at a time of the economic cycle that is similar to the

present and that also correspond to a very similar portfolio to the present one.

However, for defaulted transactions, the LGD at the worst time will be the LGD BE plus a stress, which is measured based on the

volatility of LGD.

Credit conversion factor (CCF)

As with the two preceding parameters, exposure at default is another of the necessary inputs for calculating expected loss and

regulatory capital. A contract’s exposure usually coincides with its balance. However, this is not applicable in all cases.

For example, for products with committed limits, such as credit facilities, the exposure should incorporate the potential increase in

the balance that may be recorded up to the time of default.

In observance of regulatory requirements, exposure is calculated as the drawn balance, which is the real risk at any specific

moment, plus a percentage (CCF) of the undrawn balance, which is the part that the customer can still use until the available limit

is reached. Therefore, the CCF is defined as the percentage of the undrawn balance that is expected to be used before default

occurs.

13 A cohort is a twelve-month window that has a reference date (closing of each month) and contains all delinquent transactions whose default date occurs within the

cohort. All operations must have a contract date prior to the reference date.

| p.121 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

CCF is estimated by using the cohort13 approach, analysing how the exposure varies from a pre-established reference date

through to the moment of default, obtaining the average performance according to the relevant metrics.

Different approaches are used for retail and wholesale exposure. The facility level approach analyses the evolution of the exposure

up to the time of the breach of contract, while the obligor level approach analyses the evolution of the exposure up to the moment

of the non-compliance of the client.

Again, in low-default portfolios there is not enough historical experience to be able to make a reliable estimate with the defined

LGD methodology. In this case, external sources are also used, which are combined with internal data to obtain a CCF

representative of the portfolio.

Validation process

The models used for calculating the parameters, as explained above, are subject to an effective contrast, in accordance with the

principle of proportionality, by the Internal Approval team, independent from those that have developed or used said calculation, in

order to ensure its accuracy, robustness and stability.

This review process is not restricted as to the time of approval, or the inclusion of changes in the models, but rather is framed

within a plan that allows for a periodic evaluation of them, resulting in the issuance of recommendations and mitigating actions for

the deficiencies identified.

As such, all models used in regulatory capital calculations using internal models must be subject to an annual review of the

calculation, which meet the minimum quantitative and qualitative test content requested by the supervisor in Section 4 of the

ECB's Guidelines on Internal Models (General Aspects); even when, in accordance with the principle of proportionality, certain

aspects or models that are relatively insignificant within the capital calculation may be subject to revision in the context of a

broader review cycle.

However, this possibility does not provide an exemption from conducting the various tests defined in the Instructions for Reporting

the Validation Results of Internal Models, issued by the ECB in February 2019 and the Supervisory handbook on the validation of

rating systems under the internal ratings based approach, and that should—for Internal Models on Capital for Credit Risk—be sent

to the supervisor on an annual basis and include:

–Back-testing of the parameters by comparing the model estimates with the levels actually achieved in the annual study

period.

–Discrimination Capacity Analysis, it being important to analyse the evolution of the calculated indices over time by

comparing them with indices obtained at different points in time (for example, during model construction).

–Representativeness Analysis, both in order to analyse that the model's application perimeter is set to the approved and

defined perimeter, and in order to analyse the representativeness of the historical data used in the estimation of the risk

parameters applied; with particular emphasis on tracking the record of changes made to the definition of default.

–Override analyses, which modify the final score obtained as a large number of analyses could indicate that the model is

lacking certain important information.

–Stability analysis: in order to assess the stability of the rating system, analyses will be conducted on customer migrations,

on the stability of the migration matrix and on concentration in rating grades; these analyses may be supplemented,

optionally and based on results, by comparing the Population Stability Index (PSI).

–Evaluation of the Data Used in the calibration by analysing the data extraction, processing and purging processes;

assessing potential implications for the estimate and establishing appropriate remedial actions.

The various aspects detected by Internal Validation during the review process which are susceptible to be improved will be

reflected in the validation report by setting weaknesses (recommendations, suggestions or limitations) whose criticality is

expressed on a four-color scale based on the risk assigned to the same.

For each recommendation issued, the validation report will include the details of the person responsible for its resolution, the

proposed action plan and the committed resolution date (which will be limited by the maximum terms defined by validation based

on the severity granted to the same and the model TIER, these being greater for recommendations of lesser severity and TIER).

Once the suggestions, limitations and recommendations have been established, Internal Validation will issue its opinion on the

level of risk existing in the revised model, using a four-level scale.

The reports issued by Internal Validation, required as part of the approval process for the implementation of new models or

relevant changes to existing ones, will be presented to the committees established for this purpose.

Additionally, at least every six months, the periodic reports that have been issued throughout the period will be sent to the Risk

Models Management Committee (RMMC) for information purposes, and those classified as having a high level of Model Risk will be

presented.

Annually, the results of the year's Internal Validation work will be presented to the Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC)

and to the Risk and Compliance Committee of the BBVA Group Board of Directors (CRyC), with a summary of the conclusions

obtained on the models used in IRB Systems to calculate the Credit Risk Weight Assets reviewed detailing the main strengths and

weaknesses of the most relevant.

In addition, the details of the expired recommendations will be presented to the RMMC on a quarterly basis. The Committee urges

its members to take the appropriate measures to execute the necessary plans aiming to solve or mitigate the weaknesses

associated with the expired recommendations. Moreover, the information to these recommendations will be submitted to the

GRMC on a biannual basis.

Currently, the Group does not use credit derivatives as a credit risk mitigation technique, so the EU CR7 table “IRB Approach - Effect on RWA of credit derivatives used as credit risk mitigation

techniques” is not applicable.

4.2.7.3.Comparative analysis of the estimates made

Article 452 h) CRR

In application of article 452.h) of the CRR, two tables are presented below that show relevant information on the retrospective

tests of the probability of default (PD backesting) of exposures to credit risk (excluding counterparty and securitisations), at

consolidated level of the BBVA Group. Specifically, the PD estimated for the IRB models is compared with the average annual

default rate of obligors.

As of December 31, 2025, this information is shown in the standard format and applying the instructions of the CRR3 EBA ITS:

–EU CR9: Backtesting of PD per exposure class by fixed PD scale.

–EU CR9.1: Backtesting of PD by exposure class where an additional column is added to report the equivalent external

rating. The equivalence between the PD and the external ratings described in section 4.2.7.1.2 has been used.

Both tables exclude counterparty risk, securitisations and equity. It should be noted that this information is presented at a

consolidated level, adding the IRB portfolios of BBVA.S.A. and BBVA Mexico. The information presented in these tables is as

follows:

–Number of obligors: the obligors at the end of the previous fiscal year are presented.

–Of which: number of obligors who have defaulted: customers who defaulted at some point during the last 12 months, so

that the debtors in default during the year are shown for each PD interval.

–Observed average default rate: arithmetic mean of one-year default rates. To calculate this rate, the obligors at the end

of the previous year are taken into account in the denominator, and the obligors in default in the numerator.

–Arithmetic average PD and weighted average PD (EU CR9 only): the first one refers to the arithmetic average of the PD

per obligor grade at the beginning of the period. The weighted average PD will be calculated by weighting by the exposure

value of each PD range used for the RWA calculation. This weighted average PD will be the same as the one reported in

the EU CR6 table.

–Average historical annual default rate: it corresponds to the average annual default rate for the previous five years.

As of December 31, 2025, the total number of short-term wholesale obligors (residual maturity of less than 1 year) whose

exposures are calculated under IRB approach rises to approximately 28,000 obligors. The largest number of these corresponds to

the regulatory categories of Corporates, in Spain. Additionally, the Group only has one PD model authorized by the Supervisor for

each of the aforementioned categories, therefore, 100% of the RWA are calculated under this PD model.

The comparability of the information and the composition of the time window are conditioned by the following factors:

–Long life cycle between the time the IRB parameters are updated and their final implementation, depending on the

materiality of the change, supervisory prioritization for the inspection and decision phases.

–Different nature, risk profile and economic cycles of the different portfolios, especially relevant in cases where several

geographies are aggregated in the same exposure class (mainly Corporates).

Minimum historical depth of 5 years: The annual historical default rates cover more than 5 years, seeking consistency between

regulatory and economic capital, as long as the supervisory process for the approval of the changes allows it.

Window overlap: Although there is an overlap of quarterly windows in the calibration of the pools, analysis are carried out to

measure and mitigate the possible bias that this overlapping could imply. In the quantification of the long-term PD, however, there

are no overlapping windows.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the risk-weighted assets under the IRB method decreased significantly, driven by the partial

migration from AIRB to FIRB or the standardized approach in certain portfolios. Additionally, risk transfer securitisations executed

during the quarter enabled a capital release of approximately € 2.9 billion. These factors offset organic growth, primarily within

BBVA, S.A., supported by strong CIB activity in the United States, Asia, and the rest of Europe.

It is worth noting that the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations was immaterial during this period.

The full annual series of RWA flow of credit risk under the IRB approach is available in the editable file “Pillar 3 2025 – Tables &

4.2.7.5.Risk weights of specialised lending exposure

Article 438 e) CRR

The solvency regulation stipulates that the classification of specialised lending companies should apply to legal entities with the

following characteristics:

–The exposure is to an entity created specifically to finance and/or operate physical assets.

–The contractual arrangements give the lender a substantial degree of control over the assets and income they generate.

–The primary source of repayment of the obligation is the income generated by the assets being financed, rather than the

independent capacity of the borrower.

Corporate specialized lending exposures subject to the IRB Supervisory Slotting Approach, which is used by BBVA for RWA

calculations, are assigned to a grade, the determination of which takes into account the following factors:

1.Financial Strength that includes: market conditions, financial ratios, stress analysis and financial structure.

2.Political and legal environment that includes: political risks, country risks, force majeure risks, government support, stability

of legal and regulatory environment, local support and legal force of the contracts.

3.Asset and operational characteristics that includes: design and technology risks, permits and license risks, construction risks,

completion guarantees, Contractor and Operator qualifications, O&M agreements and supply risks.

4.Strength of the Sponsor that includes: financial strength, experience and support to the project.

5.Legal & Finance Structure that includes: pledges and assignments, covenants and restrictions, DSRA.

Once assigned to a grade, the exposure is risk-weighted in accordance with the risk weight applicable to that grade and remaining

maturity banding.

The following tables show information on specialised lending exposures by type according to CRR EBA ITS. as of December 31,

2025 and June 30, 2025:

For risk measurement of the Specialised Lending portfolio, the Group uses the "slotting criteria" approach, which classifies

exposures into different regulatory categories based on the risk assessment performed by the entity and the residual maturity. In

terms of the type of specialised lending, project finance represents 80% of the whole portfolio capital requirements with a total

exposure of €14,639 million and RWA consumption of €10,950 million.

During the period, there was growth, specially in project finance activity.

4.2.8.Information on counterparty credit risk

Counterparty credit risk exposure involves that part of the original exposure corresponding to derivative instruments, repurchase

and reverse repurchase transactions, securities or commodities lending transactions and deferred settlement transactions.

| p.172 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

4.2.8.1.Policies for managing counterparty risk

4.2.8.1.1.Methodology: allocation of internal capital and limits to exposure subject to

counterparty risk

Article 439 a) CRR

EU CCRA a)

The Group has an economic model for calculating internal capital through exposure to counterparty risk in treasury operations.

This model has been implemented in the Risk unit systems in Market areas. It is used to estimate the credit exposure for each of

the counterparties for which the entity operates.

Exposure is generated in a manner consistent with those used for the monitoring and control of credit risk limits. The time horizon

is divided up into intervals, and the market risk factors (interest rates, exchange rates, etc.) underlying the instruments that

determine their valuation are simulated for each interval.

Exposure is obtained based on the 2000 different scenarios generated using the Monte Carlo method for risk factors (subject to

counterparty risk) and applying the corresponding mitigating factors to each counterparty (i.e. applying collateral and/or

compensation arrangements, or netting, as applicable).

The correlations, loss given defaults, internal ratings and associated probabilities of default are consistent with the Group’s

economic model for general credit risk.

The capital for each counterparty is then calculated using the exposure profile and taking into account the analytical formula

adopted by Basel. This figure is modified by an adjustment factor for possible subsequent maturity after one year of the

operations, in a similar vein to the general approach adopted by Basel for the treatment of credit risk.

Counterparty limits are specified within the financial programs authorised for each subsidiary within the line item of treasury

limits. It stipulates both the limit and the maximum maturity for the transaction.

Small businesses Transactions that generate counterparty risk are subject to risk limits that control both bilateral risk and risk with

CCPs. When setting these limits for each business area and segment, and to ensure their correct application, the corresponding

capital consumption and revenue generated by this operation are taken into account.

There is also a risk committee that individually analyzes the most significant transactions to assess (among other aspects) the

relationship between profitability and risk.

The consumption of transactions within the limits is measured in terms of market capitalisation (mark to market) plus the

potential risk with Monte Carlo Simulation methodology (95% confidence level or above if there are mitigating agreements or a

risk of adverse links) and considering possible mitigating factors (such as netting, break clauses and collateral contracts).

Management of consumption by lines in the Markets area is carried out through a corporate platform that enables online

monitoring of the limits and liquid assets established for the different counterparties and customers. This control is completed by

independent units of the business area to guarantee proper segregation of functions.

4.2.8.1.2.Policies for ensuring the effectiveness of collateral and setting the value adjustments

for impairment losses to cover this risk

Article 439 b) CRR

EU CCRA b)

The Group negotiates agreements with its customers to mitigate counterparty risk within the legal frameworks applicable in each

of the countries where it operates. These agreements regulate the exchange of guarantees as a mechanism to reduce exposure

derived from transactions that generate counterparty risk.

| p.173 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The assets covered by these agreements include cash, as well as financial assets with a high credit quality. In addition, the

agreements with customers include mechanisms that allow the immediate replacement of the collateral if its quality is impaired

(for example, a reduction in the market capitalisation or adverse changes in the asset rating).

Mitigation by compensation or netting transactions and by collateral only reduces the consumption of limits and capital if there is a

positive opinion on their immediate effectiveness in case of the counterparty’s default or insolvency.

An internal tool has been specifically designed to store and process the collateral contracts concluded with counterparties. This

application enables the existence of collateral to be taken into account at the transaction level (useful for controlling and

monitoring the status of specific operations) as well as at the counterparty level. Furthermore, this tool feeds the applications

responsible for estimating counterparty risk by providing all the necessary parameters for considering the impact of mitigation in

the portfolio due to the agreements signed.

In order to guarantee the effectiveness of collateral contracts, the Group carries out daily monitoring of the market values of

operations governed by such contracts and of the deposits made by the counterparties. Once the amount of the collateral to be

delivered or received is obtained, the collateral demand (margin call), or the demand received, is carried out at the intervals

established in the contract, usually daily.

If significant variations arise from the process of reconciliation between the counterparties, after a reconciliation in economic

terms, they are reported by the Collateral unit to the Risk unit for subsequent analysis and monitoring. Within the control process,

the Collateral unit issues a daily report on the guarantees which includes a description by counterparty of the exposure and

deposited collateral, making special reference to those guarantee deficits at or beyond the set warning levels.

As pointed out in section 4.2.5.1., financial assets and liabilities may be the object of compensation, or netting, in other words

presentation for a net amount in the consolidated balance sheet, only when the Group’s entities comply with the provisions laid

down in IAS 32 - Paragraph 42, and thus have the legally obliged right to offset the amounts recognised, and the intention to settle

the net amount or to divest the asset and pay the liability at the same time.

In addition, the Group has assets and liabilities on the balance sheet that are not netted and for which there are master netting

agreements, but for which there is neither the intention nor the right to settle. The most common types of events that trigger the

compensation of reciprocal obligations include the bankruptcy of the credit institution in question, swiftly accumulating

indebtedness, default, and the restructuring or dissolution of the entity.

In the current market context, derivatives are arranged under a variety of framework contracts, with the most general being those

developed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA), and for the Spanish market the Framework Agreement

for Financial Transactions (FAFT). Practically all portfolio derivative operations have been concluded under these master

contracts, including in them the netting clauses referred to in the above point as Master Netting Agreements, considerably

reducing the credit exposure in these instruments. Furthermore, in the contracts concluded with professional counterparties,

annexes are included with collateral agreements called Credit Support Annexes (CSA), thus minimizing exposure to a possible

counterparty insolvency.

At the same time, the Group has a high volume of assets sold under repurchase agreements traded through clearing houses that

use mechanisms to reduce counterparty risk, as well as through various master contracts in bilateral operations, the most

common being the Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA), which is published by the International Capital Market

Association (ICMA). This tends to have clauses added relating to the exchange of collateral within the main body of the master

contract itself.

| p.174 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

4.2.8.1.3.Policies on the risk of adverse effects due to correlations

Article 439 c) CRR

EU CCRA c)

Derivatives contracts may give rise to potential adverse correlation effects between the exposure to the counterparty and its credit

quality (wrong-way-exposure).

The Group has specific policies for handling these type of exposures, which establish:

–How to identify transactions subject to adverse correlation risk.

–A specific transaction-by-transaction admission procedure.

–Measurements appropriate to the risk profile with adverse correlation and sanctioned in the corresponding decision-

making areas.

–Control and monitoring of the transaction.

4.2.8.1.4.Impact of collateral in the event of a downgrade in credit quality

Article 439 d) CRR

EU CCRA e)

In derivatives transactions, as a general policy the Group does not subscribe collateral contracts that involve an increase in the

amount to be deposited in the event of the Group being downgraded.

The general criteria applied to date with banking counterparties is to establish a zero threshold within collateral contracts,

irrespective of the mutual rating; provision will be made as collateral of any difference that arises through market capitalisation

(mark to market).

Since 2018, with the entry into force of the regulatory obligations for exchange of margins for derivatives that are not offset in the

clearing houses, all the collateral annexes have been adapted to the characteristics required by the regulation, among which is that

of establishing a zero threshold. Furthermore, the obligation to exchange initial margins with the main financial counterparties to

overcollateralize exposure was added in 2019.

4.2.8.2.Exposure to counterparty credit risk

The exposure value of derivative instruments will be determined based on one of the methods established in sections 3 to 6 of

chapter 6 of the CRR: standard method for counterparty credit risk, simplified standard method for credit risk counterparty,

original risk method or internal models method.

The exposure value of the securities financing transactions (SFTs) is determined in accordance with the methods provided in the

preceding paragraph or using those provided for in Chapter 4 of the CRR.

In this regard, the BBVA, S.A. Group calculates the exposure value of derivative instruments in accordance with the standardised

method for counterparty credit risk (SA-CCR) which is applicable since June 2021.

The SA-CCR framework calculates the aforementioned exposure by each netting set of the entity. The SA-CCR method defines the

exposure value as the product of a surcharge (α) applied to the sum of the replacement cost (RC) and the potential future

exposure (PFE). Where α is equal to 1.4.

shape-d5f4854bbf297608.gif

Exposure value = α * (RC + PFE)

| p.175 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The BBVA Group S.A. calculates the exposure value of the repurchase operations in accordance with the provisions of chapter 4

on credit risk mitigation and in accordance with the financial collateral comprehensive method.

  1. This movement was mainly driven by greater exposure in the entities segment, as well as by increased activity in

securities financing transactions.

In addition, counterparty credit risk exposure under the standardised approach increased, mainly due to greater activity in the

Central Government and Central Bank segment, linked to derivative instruments and deferred settlement transactions.

During the second half of 2025, consumption due to counterparty risk, excluding exposures to central counterparties, increases

under the SA-CCR method for derivative instruments, reflecting a higher volume of this type of transaction. Consumption due to

counterparty risk under the comprehensive approach for securities financing transactions decreased.

As of December 31, 2025, exposures to central counterparties have grown compared to June 30, 2025, driven mainly by the

increase in OTC derivatives volumes and securities financing transactions with qualified entities. Although this increase in

exposure is observed, the associated RWA volume remains stable. On the other hand, in the area of non-qualified entities, there

has been an upturn in exposure to exchange-traded derivatives, a factor that explains the increase in capital requirements for the

period in this segment.

4.2.8.4.CVA charge requirements

Article 445a (1) a) CRR

EU CVAA a)

The CVA surcharge in Capital refers to the additional capital requirements to cover unexpected losses due to credit valuation

adjustments.

Procedures for calculating the valuation adjustments and reserves

The fair value of liabilities should reflect the entity's default risk, which includes, among other components, its own credit risk.

Taking this into account, the Group makes valuation adjustments for credit risk in the estimates of the fair value of its assets and

liabilities.

These adjustments are calculated by estimating Exposure At Default, Probability of Default and Loss Given Default, which are

based on the recovery levels for all derivative products on any instrument, deposits and repos at the legal entity level (all

counterparties under a same master agreement), in which BBVA has exposure.

| p.184 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Credit Valuation Adjustment (hereinafter “CVA”) and Debit Valuation Adjustments (hereinafter “DVA”) are included in the

valuation of derivatives, both assets and liabilities, to reflect the impact on the fair value of the counterparty credit risk and its own,

respectively. The Group incorporates in its valuation, for all exposures classified in any of the categories valued at fair value, both

the counterparty credit risk and its own. In the trading portfolio, and in the specific case of derivatives, credit risk is recognized

through such adjustments.

As a general rule, the calculation of CVA is the sum of the expected positive exposure in time t, the probability of default between

t-1 and t, and the Loss Given Default of the counterparty. Consequently, the DVA is calculated as the sum of the expected negative

exposure in time t, the probability of default of BBVA between t-1 and t, and the Loss Given Default of BBVA. Both calculations are

performed throughout the entire period of potential exposure.

The calculation of the expected positive and negative exposure is done through a Montecarlo simulation of the market variables

involved in all trades’ valuation under the same legal netting set.

The information needed to calculate the probability of default and the loss given default of a counterparty comes from the credit

markets. The counterparty’s Credit Default Swaps are used if liquid quotes are available. If a market price is not available, BBVA

has implemented a mapping process based on the sector, rating and geography of the counterparty to assign probabilities of

default and loss given default calibrated directly to market.

An additional adjustment for Own Credit Adjustment (hereinafter "OCA") is applied to the instruments accounted for by applying

the Fair Value Option permitted by IFRS 9.

Capital requirements for CVA risk are subject to ongoing supervision by local capital teams and are integrated into corporate tools

and established reporting circuits, both locally and at the consolidated level.

These metrics are also included in the periodic information submitted to the monthly capital committees, where they are analyzed

and reviewed to ensure methodological consistency and the reliability of the information reported.

Methodologies for calculating capital requirements for CVA

There are three methods of calculating capital requirements:

–Standardised approach (Art. 383 CRR). It is based on the sum of delta and vega risk, calculated using sensitivities to

factors such as interest rates, spreads and volatility. Requires supervisory approval, a dedicated management unit,

regulatory models per counterparty and the ability to calculate these sensitivities on a monthly basis. It allows for the

inclusion of eligible hedges if they are correctly modelled. This approach seeks to standardise and simplify the calculation

of CVA risk, improving comparability and transparency. As of December 31, 2025, no subsidiary of the Group has the

supervisory authorisation for using this method.

–Basic approach (Art 384 CRR). which allows CVA capital requirements to be calculated without the need for internal

models and sensitivities. It provides a simpler and more conservative alternative to the standardised approach and does

not require prior supervisory approval.

–Simplified approach (Art 385 CRR), which allows institutions that meet certain requirements established in the CRR to

calculate the capital requirements for CVA as 8% of the RWA for counterparty risk. Although less complex than the

standard approach, it requires greater granularity than the basic method and can recognize hedges under certain

conditions. As of December 31, 2025, no subsidiary of the Group meets the requirements for using this method.

The variations in terms of RWA during the last quarter of 2025 are presented below:

As of December 31, 2025, risk weighted assets for CVA increased by €133 million, mainly due to the increase in the EAD of the

derivatives portfolio, partially offset by a €7 million reduction due to the exchange rate effect.

The full annual series of RWA flow of credit valuation adjustments under the standardised approach is available in the editable file

“Pillar 3 2025 – Tables & Annexes”.

The basic method, which is used by the Group to calculate the CVA capital requirement, is described in detail below.

4.2.8.4.1.Basic approach

Article 445a (3) a) CRR

The basic CVA approach, regulated by article 384 of CRR3, allows for the calculation of the capital requirement for credit valuation

adjustment (CVA) risk in a simplified manner. This approach is designed for institutions that do not have supervisory approval for

the use of the standardised approach. It aims to provide a simple and prudent alternative, particularly suitable for institutions with

less complex derivatives portfolios.

The basic approach has two methodologies:

1.Full Basic Approach (FBA). When one or more eligible hedging measures are included in the calculation.

2.Reduced Basic Approach (RBA). No eligible hedges are included in the calculation of the minimum requirements.

The latter is used in the Group for the calculation of CVA requirements. The total of CVA's risk-based own funds requirements

under the reduced basic approach and their components are presented below:

4.2.9.Information on securitisation

4.2.9.1.General characteristics of securitisation

4.2.9.1.1.Purposes of securitisation

Article 449 a), b) CRR

EU SECA a), b)

The Group’s current securitisation policy considers a recurrent issuance program with a deliberate diversification of securitised

assets that adjusts their volume to the Bank’s capital requirements and to market conditions.

This program is complemented by all the other finance and capital instruments, thereby diversifying the need to resort to

wholesale markets.

The definition of the strategy and the execution of the operations, as with all other wholesale finance and capital management, is

supervised by the Assets & Liabilities Committee, with the pertinent internal authorisations obtained directly from the Board of

Directors or from the Executive Committee.

The main objective of securitisation is to serve as an instrument for the efficient management of the balance sheet, mainly as a

source of liquidity at an efficient cost, obtaining liquid assets through eligible collateral, as a complement to other financial

instruments. In addition, there are other secondary objectives associated with the use of securitisation instruments, such as the

freeing up of regulatory capital by transferring risk, and the freeing of potential excess over the expected loss, as long as the

volume of the first-loss tranche and risk transfer allow it.

In accordance with the STS (Simple, Transparent and Standardized) securitisation framework, the Group does not take into

account the STS classification when selecting the portfolios to be securitised.

Main risks exposed in securitisation operations.

1.Default risk

It is the risk that the debtor does not pay the assumed contractual obligations by the due date and in the correct manner (for

example, potential non-payment of instalments).

In the particular case of securitisation, the entities provide information to investors on the situation of the securitised loan

portfolio. In this respect, it is worth noting that transactions transferred to the Securitisation Fund do not include defaults, or at

most, if there is one, in no case do they exceed 30 days of non-payment, demonstrating the high quality of securitised

transactions. The rating agencies take this element closely into account when analysing the credit risk of transactions.

BBVA monitors the changes in these indicators with the aim of establishing specific action plans in the different products, in order

to correct any deviations that are leading to a deterioration in credit quality.

In order to monitor these indicators, monthly, and in some cases, daily information is available. It includes flows of additions,

recoveries, irregular investments and non-performing loans. The information is obtained through different applications and

reports prepared in the Risk area.

BBVA’s policy of recovery for impaired loans consists of defining an operating system that allows a speedy and efficient correction

of the irregular situation. It is based on a highly personalised management, with a key role being played by the Recovery Manager

and his close and ongoing relationship with the debtor.

| p.187 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The main guarantee is always mortgage on the asset subject of the transaction, or on the main residence. In addition, there are

frequent personal guarantees issued by the holders of the loan or the guarantors, which reinforce the repayment of the debt and

quality of the risk. The rights to collection before insurance companies are also subrogated in favour of the Bank in cases where

there is damage to the mortgaged building due to fire or other duly stipulated causes.

2.Early repayment risk

This derives from the potential total or partial prepayment by the debtor of the amounts corresponding to the (fully or partially)

securitised loans, which could imply that the maturity of the securitisation bonds calculated at the time of the issue is shorter than

the maturity of the loans transferred to the Fund.

This risk is mainly due to the variations of market interest rates, but despite its importance it is not the only determining factor; to

this have to be added other more personal elements, such as inheritance, divorce, change of residence, etc.

In the specific case of the Group’s securitisations, this risk is very limited, as the maturity date of the securitisation Bonds is set

according to the maturity of the last loan of the securitised portfolio.

3.Liquidity risk

At times it is noted that a possible limited liquidity of the markets in which the Bonds are traded could constitute a risk derived

from the securitisation processes.

Although an entity may not undertake contracts in the secondary market of Bonds issued by the Securitisation Fund, and thus

provide liquidity to the funds, the securitisation process itself consists of converting illiquid assets that form part of the Bank’s

balance sheet into liquid assets in the form of securitisation Bonds, which give the possibility of trading and transferring them in a

regulated market. This would not be the case if they were not subject to the securitisation process.

In addition, understanding liquidity risk as the possible time mismatch between the maturities of the collections generated by the

loans and the payments the Bonds originate, BBVA has not so far made any securitisation issues in which there is a divergence

between collections and payments. The entities that have programs for debt security issues, in which this risk is typically present,

mitigate it with the use of liquidity lines that are included in the structure of the Fund.

4.2.9.1.2.Functions performed by the securitisation process and degree of involvement

Article 449 a) CRR

EU SECA a)

The Group’s involvement degree in its securitisation funds is not usually restricted to the mere role of assignor and administrator

of the securitised portfolio.

| p.188 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

cedant_eng.jpg

As seen in the above image, the Group has usually taken additional roles such as:

–Payment Agent.

–Provider of treasury account.

–Provider of the subordinated loan and of the financing of initial costs, being the one that finances the first-loss tranche,

and the latter financing the fund’s fixed expenditure.

–Administrative agent of the securitised portfolio.

The Group has not assumed the role of sponsor of securitisation originated by third-party institutions.

The Group’s balance sheet maintains the first-loss tranches of all securitisation that has been carried out.

It is worth noting that the Group has maintained a consistent line on generating securitisation operations since the credit crunch,

which began in July 2007.

In addition, the Group has performed various Synthetic Securitisation operations to date, introducing this operation as an

additional source of regulatory capital release.

4.2.9.1.3.Methods used for the calculation of risk-weighted exposure in securitisation

transactions

Article 449 c) CRR

EU SECA c)

When securitisation positions meet the criteria for significant and effective risk transfer as defined by Articles 244 and 245 of

Regulation 2017/2401, under the securitisation framework set in Regulation 2017/2402, the Group calculates the capital

requirements of these securitisations by applying the following methods, which apply to both originated securitisations and

investment positions in securitisation funds originated by third parties:

| p.189 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–IRBA method (Article 259): When according to the securitisation features, all information on the underlying loans of the

securitised portfolio is accessible, and at least for 95% of the loans the risk weights are calculated under IRB approach.

–SA method (Article 261): When information is available on the underlying loans of the securitised portfolio, but the

threshold of 95% of the loans under the IRB approach is not reached.

–ERBA method (Article 263): When information on the underlying securitisation loans is not accessible, and it is

necessary to use external rating data.

4.2.9.1.4.Transfer of risk in securitisation activities and criteria for recognition of gains on sales

Article 449 g) CRR

EU SECA g)

The Group considers that the risks and benefits of the securitisations are substantially retained if the subordinated bonds are held

and/or if subordination funding has been granted to those securitisation funds, which means that the credit loss risk of the

securitised assets will be assumed. Consequently, the Group is not derecognizing those transferred loan portfolios.

In addition, the Group recognizes the gains on sales of securitised assets when they are derecognised from the balance sheet,

which implies to comply with the  substantial transfer of risks and benefits requirements described above.

The result will be recognised in the income statement  and calculated as the difference between the carrying amount and the sum

of the amount received, including any new asset received minus liabilities assumed.

When the amount of the transferred financial asset matches the total amount of the original financial asset, the new financial

assets, financial liabilities and service-delivery liabilities, which, if any, arise as a result of the transfer, shall be recorded at fair

value.

4.2.9.2.Securitisation exposure in the banking and trading book

Article 449 b), j) CRR

EU SECA b)

The Group has carried out twelve securitisations in 2025, two of them in cash or traditional format and ten in synthetic

securitisation format, all of them involving risk transfer.

The first securitisation was closed in January, consisting of a portfolio of commercial loans amounting to €150 million (RPP

01-2025); the second, in February, amounted to €3.25 billion of a Corporate loan portfolio (BBVA Vela Corporates 2025-1); the

third, in March, amounted to  €1.431 billion on a SME loan portfolio (BBVA Vela SME 2025-1). In March, there was also an increase

of €4 billion in the Verano IV transaction, which had been closed in October 2024 on a portfolio of Large Corporate loans.

In May, the fourth transaction was executed in a Cash format, for an amount of €2.35 billion (BBVA Consumer 2025-1 FT). In June,

three transactions were closed: the fifth, amounting to €2.498 billion (BBVA Vela Consumer 2025-1), backed by a Consumer loan

portfolio; the sixth, a synthetic securitisation on a Project Finance loan portfolio (Galea I) for €1,000 million; and the seventh,

amounting to €39 million, backed by a portfolio of commercial factoring (RPP 06-2025).

During the last quarter of the year, the remaining 5 transactions were carried out: in September, the eighth transaction, in Cash

format (BBVA Consumer Auto 2025-1 FT), a securitisation of an Auto loan portfolio of €1 billion; also in September, the ninth

transaction of €2.792 billion (BBVA Vela Hipotecario 2025-1), a securitisation of mortgage loans. In October, the tenth transaction

consisted of a synthetic securitisation of a Large Corporates loan portfolio amounting to €4 billion (Saona I). In November, the

eleventh transaction was a €2.196 billion securitisation of a portfolio of Empresas and Corporate loans, and finally, in December,

the twelfth transaction involved a portfolio of receivables of €70 million (RPP 12-2025).

4.2.9.3.Securitisation – Group acting as originator

4.2.9.3.1.Rating agencies used

Article 449 h) CRR

EU SECA h)

The external credit assessment institutions (ECAI) involved in the rating of those securitisations originated by the Group which

fulfill the criteria of risk transfer and falling within the securitisation solvency framework are, generally, Fitch, Moody’s, S&P, and

DBRS. The types of securitisation exposure for which each agency is used are, with no differentiation between the different

agencies, all the asset types that tend to be used as residential mortgage loans to Corporates and SMEs, consumer finance and

autos and leasing.

In all the securitisation funds, the agencies have assessed the risk of the entire issuance structure:

–Awarding ratings to all bond tranches.

–Establishing the volume of the credit enhancement.

–Establishing the necessary triggers (early termination of the restitution period, pro-rata depreciation of AAA classes, pro-

rata amortization of series subordinated to AAA and amortization of the reserve fund, amongst others).

For each issue, in addition to the initial rating, the agencies carry out regular quarterly monitoring.

4.2.9.3.2.Positions in securitisation originated by the Group

Article 449 k).i) CRR

The table below shows the EAD and RWA of securitisation positions originated by the Group in the banking book, broken down by

type of securitised exposure, tranches and risk weight ranges and their corresponding capital requirements as of December 31,

2025 and as of June 30, 2025.

In the case of securitisations where the Group acts as originator, the variation of the requirements in 2025 is explained by the securitisations mentioned above which complied with the risk

transfer requirements set in the applicable regulatory provision. The net effect on the Group's RWA by changing the capital consumption of the underlying assets under the credit risk

framework  to the capital consumption under the securitisation framework is a reduction of approximately €9.8 billion, at the time of the origination.

The balance of defaulted exposures of securitisations with risk transfer has not increased significantly during 2025.

The following table shows the outstanding balance corresponding to the underlying assets of securitisation originated by the

Group, which do not meet the risk transfer criteria, and which, therefore, are not included in the securitisation framework, but

rather for which the capital calculation of the exposure is carried out as if it had not been securitised:

4.3.Market Risk

image41.jpg

4.3.1. Scope and nature of the market risk measurement and reporting

systems

Article 435 (1) a), b), c), d) CRR

EU MRA a), b), c)

Market risk is the possibility that there may be losses in the value of positions held due to movements in the market variables that

affect the valuation of financial products and assets.

The scope of market risk in the Group's trading portfolios is mainly defined by the portfolios originated by Global Markets valued at

fair value and maintained for the purpose of trading and generates short term results. The market risk in the banking book is

clearly delimited and separated in the structural risk of interest and credit spread, exchange rate and equity, which are broken

down in section 4.4.

The main market risks can be classified into the following groups:

–Interest rate risk: This arises as a result of exposure to movements in the different interest rate curves involved in trading.

Although the typical products that generate sensitivity to the movements in interest rates are money-market products

(deposits, interest rate futures, call money swaps, etc.) and traditional interest rate derivatives (swaps and interest rate

options such as caps, floors, swaptions, etc.), practically all the financial products are exposed to interest rate

movements due to the effect that such movements have on the valuation of the financial discount.

–Equity risk: This arises as a result of movements in share prices. This risk is generated in spot positions in shares or any

derivative products whose underlying asset is a share or an equity index. Dividend risk is a sub-risk of equity risk, arising

as an input for any equity option. Its variation may affect the valuation of positions and it is therefore a factor that

generates risk on the books.

–Exchange rate risk: This is caused by movements in the exchange rates of the different currencies in which a position is

held. As in the case of equity risk, this risk is generated in spot currency positions, and in any derivative product whose

underlying asset is an exchange rate. In addition, the quanto effect (operations where the underlying asset and the

instrument itself are denominated in different currencies) means that in certain transactions in which the underlying asset

is not a currency, an exchange rate risk is generated that has to be measured and monitored.

–Credit spread risk: Credit spread is an indicator of an issuer's credit quality. Spread risk occurs due to variations in the

levels of spread of both corporate and government issues, and affects positions in bonds and credit derivatives.

–Volatility risk: This occurs as a result of changes in the levels of implied price volatility of the different market instruments

on which derivatives are traded. This risk, unlike the others, is exclusively a component of trading in derivatives and is

defined as a first-order convexity risk that is generated in all possible underlying assets in which there are products with

options that require a volatility input for their valuation.

–Other less relevant risks for the Group include inflation risk, correlation risk and market liquidity risk.

| p.202 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The metrics developed to control and monitor market risk in the BBVA Group are aligned with market practices and are

implemented consistently across all the local market risk units.

Measurement procedures are established in terms of the possible impact of negative market conditions on the trading portfolio of

the Group's Global Markets units, both under ordinary circumstances and in situations of heightened risk factors.

A management scheme is designed to encourage the creation of geographically, individually and sectorally diversified market

portfolios, avoiding individual concentrations and concentrations of correlated risk factors, in order to achieve a distribution of

capital that preserves the level of income and limits market risk losses even in stress situations. In addition, the market risk

admission process is subject to robust policies and appropriate decision-making tools, as well as continuous monitoring of the

evolution of activity and variations in market variables in order to adjust possible deviations in a timely manner.

The current management structure includes the monitoring of market-risk limits, consisting of a scheme of limits based on

specific metrics according to market activities, (VaR (Value at Risk), economic capital, as well as stop-loss limits for each of the

Group’s business units).

In addition, in Chapter 4.3.4.2 more information about the risk measurement models used in the Group, focused on internal

models approved by the supervisor for BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico to calculate regulatory capital requirements on trading

portfolios is detailed. For the other geographic areas (mainly South America and Garanti BBVA), the calculation of own funds

requirements for trading portfolios is carried out using the standardised approach.

Analysis of the Group’s RWA structure shows that almost 5% corresponds to Market Risk (including structural exchange risk).

4.3.1.1.Characteristics of the risk management system

Article 435 (1) b), c) CRR

EU MRA a), b)

The Group has a risk management system in place which is appropriate for the volume of risk managed, complying with the

functions set out in the Corporate Policy on Market Risk in Market Activities.

Market risk management must be based on processes and tools that integrate management models, criteria and strategies, and

allow decision-making to be automated.

Likewise, the information processes necessary for the measurement, generation or maintenance of tools, engines, reporting, etc.,

must comply with the requirements of the regulations relating to the data, with special attention to the identification of the

information activities established therein and compliance with the deliverables of each activity.

The risk units must have:

–A suitable organisation (means, resources and experience) in line with the nature and complexity of the business.

–Segregation of functions and independence in decision-making.

–Performance under integrity and good governance principles, driving the best practices in the industry and complying

with the rules, both internal (policies, procedures) and external (regulation, supervision, guidelines).

–The existence of channels for communication with the relevant corporate bodies at local level according to their corporate

governance system, as well as with the Corporate Area.

–All market risk existing in the business units that carry out trading activity must be adequately identified, measured and

assessed, and procedures must be in place for its control and mitigation. On this point according to the Corporate Policy

on Market Risk in Market Activities each business unit has established structured limits, early alerts and operational

| p.203 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

references, having a communication circuit that establishes the responsibilities of information at different levels and

actions by the risk areas and business managers.

–The Global Market Risk Unit (GMRU), as the unit responsible for managing market risk at Group level, must promote the

use of objective and uniform metrics for measuring the different types of risks.

The BBVA Group's risk governance model is characterised by the special involvement of its corporate bodies, both in establishing

the risk strategy and in the continuous monitoring and supervision of its implementation. The corporate bodies approve both the

risk strategy and the general policies for the different types of risk, and the Risk area is responsible, in the management area, for

implementing and developing them in all matters relating to financial risks, reporting to the corporate bodies.

The Risk Appetite statement contained in the Group's Risk Appetite Framework sets out the general principles of the Group's Risk

Strategy. It also includes a statement on market risk, which establishes that the BBVA Group's market activity is mainly focused on

obtaining recurring income from stable activity with customers and taking advantage of market opportunities arising from the

management of books arising from customer transactions. Market risk management is aimed at achieving an adequate return on

capital, maintaining a risk profile appropriate to the type of business conducted in each geographical area.

4.3.2.Differences in the trading book under accounting and prudential

regulation

EU MRB EU a)

According to the solvency regulations, trading book shall be made up of all the positions on financial instruments and commodities

that the credit institution holds for the purpose of trading or that act as hedging for other elements in this portfolio.

With respect to this portfolio, the rule also refers to the need to establish clearly defined policies and procedures.

For this purpose, regulatory trading book defined by the Group includes the positions managed by the Group’s Trading units, for

which market risk limits are set and then monitored daily. Moreover, they comply with the other requirements defined in the

solvency regulations.

In accounting, Financial assets are recorded under the heading “Financial assets held for trading” if the objective of the business

model is to generate gains by buying and selling these financial instruments or to generate short-term results.

4.3.3.Standardised approach

Article 445 CRR

Market risk-weighted assets under the standardised approach (including structural exchange rate risk) account for 48% of total

market risk-weighted assets.

The amounts in terms of RWA and market risk capital requirements calculated by standardised approach as of December 31, 2025

and as of June 30, 2025 are below.

During the second semester of 2025, standard market risk capital requirements are mainly affected by currency fluctuations, with

this impact being partially offset by lower interest rate risk consumption and, to a lesser extent, by the decrease in positions

subject to correlation risk in the trading book (included in the row “Securitisation”).

4.3.4. Internal models

4.3.4.1.Scope of application

Article 455 b) CRR

For the purposes of calculating own funds requirements as approved by the supervisor, the scope of application of the internal

market risk model extends to BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico trading activity.

As explained in the following section, most of the items on the Group’s consolidated balance sheet that are subject to market risk

are positions whose principal metric used to measure their market risk is VaR.

4.3.4.2.Characteristics of the models used

Article 455 a).i), a.ii), b), c), f) CRR

EU MRB EU a), (A), (B), (C)

Measurement procedures are established in terms of the possible impact of negative market conditions on the trading portfolio of

the Group's Global Markets units, both under ordinary circumstances and in situations of heightened risk factors.

The standard metric used to measure market risk is Value at Risk (hereinafter “VaR”), which indicates the maximum loss that may

occur in the portfolios at a given confidence level (99%) and time horizon (one day).

This statistic value is widely used in the market and has the advantage of summing up in a single metric the risks inherent to

trading activity, taking into account how they are related and providing a prediction of the loss that the trading book could sustain

as a result of fluctuations in equity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates and credit spreads. Additionally, for certain

positions, other risks need to be considered, such as a credit spread, base, volatility or correlation risk

With respect to the risk measurement models used by the BBVA Group, the Supervisor has authorized the use of the internal

market risk model to determine bank capital requirements deriving from risk positions on the BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico trading

book, which jointly accounted for around  73% of the Group’s trading-book market risk as of December 31, 2025 .

BBVA uses a single model to calculate the regulatory requirements by risk, taking into account the correlation between the assets

and thus recognizing the diversification effect of the portfolios. The model used estimates the VaR in accordance with the

“historical simulation” methodology, which involves estimating the profit and loss that would have been incurred in the current

| p.205 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

portfolio if the changing market conditions that occurred over a given period of time were repeated. Based on this information, it

infers the maximum foreseeable loss in the current portfolio with a given level of confidence.

Absolute and relative returns are used in simulating the potential variation of the risk factors, depending on the type of risk factor.

Relative returns are used in the case of equity; while absolute returns are used in the case of foreign currency, spreads and interest

rates.

The model has the advantage of accurately reflecting the historical distribution of the market variables and of not requiring any

specific distribution assumption. The historical period used in this model is two years.

The VaR figures are estimated based on the VaR without smoothing methodology, which awards equal weight to the daily

information for the previous two years. This is currently the official methodology for measuring market risks for the purpose of

monitoring compliance with risk limits. The VaR stress metric is obtained in an analogous way (99% percentile, with 1-day loss),

with a fixed window of 1 year within the established stress period, subject to revision and being specific to each geographical area

to represent its stress period.

At the same time, and following the guidelines established by the Spanish and European authorities, BBVA incorporates metrics in

addition to VaR with the aim of meeting the Bank of Spain's regulatory requirements with respect to the calculation of bank capital

for the trading book. Specifically, the measures incorporated in the Group since December 2011 (stipulated by Basel 2.5) are:

–VaR: In regulatory terms, the VaR charge incorporates the stressed VaR charge, and the sum of the two (VaR and

stressed VaR) is calculated. This quantifies the losses associated with the movements of the risk factors inherent to

market operations (including interest rate risk, exchange rate risk, equity risk and credit risk, among others). Both VaR

and stressed VaR are rescaled by a regulatory multiplier (between three and four) and by the square root of ten to

calculate the capital charge.

–Specific Risk - Incremental Risk Capital (“IRC”): Quantification of the risks of default and changes of the credit ratings of

the bond and derivative positions and debt funds with daily look-through or significant benchmark (correlation > 90%) in

the trading portfolio. The IRC charge is exclusively applied in entities in respect of which the internal market risk model is

used (i.e. BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico). The IRC charge is determined based on the associated losses (calculated at

99.9% confidence level over a one-year horizon under the hypothesis of constant risk) due to a rating change and/or

default of the issuer with respect to an asset. In addition, the price risk is included in sovereign positions for the specified

items.

–Specific Risk: Securitization, correlation portfolios and Investment funds without look-through. Capital charges for

securitizations and correlation portfolios are assessed based on the potential losses associated with the occurrence of a

credit event in the underlying exposures. They are calculated by the standard model. The scope of the correlations

portfolios refers to the First To Default (FTD)-type market operation and/or tranches of market CDOs (Collateralized

Debt Obligations) and only for positions with an active market and hedging capacity. Capital charge for Funds include

losses associated with volatility and credit risk of the underling positions of the fund. All charges are calculated by the

standard model.

The capital charge is determined based on the associated losses (at 99.9% over a time horizon of 1 year under the assumption of

constant risk) resulting from the rating migration and/or default of the asset’s issuer. Also included is the price risk in sovereign

positions for the indicated items.

Regarding the method of aggregating the capitals of the different geographies, the direct sum of the capital charges is applied

without applying diversification among them.

The calculation methodology is based on the Monte Carlo simulation of the impact of defaults and rating transitions on the

portfolio subject to incremental risk capital. The model defining the transition and default process of a counterparty is based on

the changes in a counterparty’s credit quality. Under a one-factor Merton model, which underlies the Basel or Creditmetrics

| p.206 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

model, this credit quality will correspond to the value of the issuer’s assets, depending on a systemic factor that is common to all

the issuers, and an idiosyncratic factor specific to each.

All that is needed to simulate the rating and default transition process for the issuers is to simulate the systemic factor and the

idiosyncratic component. Once the underlying variable is available, the final rating can be obtained. The individual credit quality

simulation of the issuers allows losses due to systemic risk and idiosyncratic risk to be obtained.

Transition matrices

The transition matrix used for calculation is estimated based on the external information about the rating transitions provided by

the rating agencies. Specifically, the information provided by the Standard & Poor’s agency is used.

The appropriateness of using information on external transitions is justified by:

–The internal ratings for the Sovereign, Emerging Sovereign Country, Financial Institution and Corporate segments (which

constitute the core positions subject to incremental risk capital) are aligned with the external ratings. By way of example,

the internal rating system for financial institutions is based on an algorithm that uses external ratings.

–The rating agencies provide sufficient historical information to cover a complete economic cycle (rating transition

information is available dating back to the 1981 financial year) and obtain a long-term transition matrix in the same way

that long-term probabilities of default are required for the calculation of the regulatory capital for credit risk in the banking

book.

This depth level of historical information is not available for the internal rating systems.

Although external data are used for determining the transitions between ratings, to establish the default, the probabilities used are

assigned by the BBVA master scale, which ensures consistency with the probabilities used for the calculations of capital in the

banking book.

The transition matrix is recalibrated every year, based on information on transitions provided by Standard & Poor’s. A procedure

has been defined to readjust the transitions in accordance with the probability of default assigned by the master scale.

Liquidity horizons

The calculation of incremental risk capital used by BBVA explicitly includes the use of positions with a hypothesis of a constant

level of risk and quarterly liquidity horizons of less than one year. The average liquidity horizon is in the range of 3-6 months.

The establishment of liquidity horizons follows the guidelines/criteria established by Basel in its guidelines for computing capital

for incremental risk.

First, a criterion has been used of capacity for managing positions through liquid instruments that allow their inherent risk to be

hedged. The main instrument for hedging the price risk for rating transitions and defaults is the Credit Default Swap (CDS). The

existence of this hedging instrument serves as a justification for considering a short term liquidity horizon.

However, in addition to considering the existence of a liquid CDS, a distinction has to be made according to the issuer’s rating (this

factor is also mentioned in the aforementioned guidelines). Specifically, between investment grade issuers or those with a rating of

BBB- or above, and issuers below this limit.

According to these criteria, the issuers are mapped to standard liquidity horizons of 3, 6 or 12 months.

Correlation

| p.207 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The calculation methodology is based on a multi-factor model, in which there is one factor common to all the counterparties. The

coefficient of the model is determined by the correlation curves established by Basel for corporates, financial institutions and

sovereigns based on the probability of default.

The use of the Basel correlation curve ensures consistency with the calculation of regulatory capital under the IRB approach for

the positions in the banking book.

Validity tests are performed regularly on the risk measurement models used by the Group. They estimate the maximum loss that

could have been incurred in the assessed positions with a certain level of probability (backtesting), as well as measurements of the

impact of extreme market events on risk positions (stress testing).

Backtesting is performed at the trading floor level as an additional control measure in order to carry out a more specific monitoring

of the validity of the measurement models.

The current structure for market risk management includes monitoring market risk limits, which consists of a system of limits

based on metrics of market activities (Value at Risk (VaR), economic capital, as well as stop-loss limits for each of the Group’s

business units). The global limits are approved by the Executive Committee on an annual basis, once they have been analysed by

the Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC). This limits structure is developed by identifying specific risks by type, trading

activity and trading floor. The market risk unit also maintains consistency between limits. The control structure in place is

supplemented by limits on loss and a system of alert signals to anticipate the effects of adverse situations in terms of risk and/or

result.

The review of the quality of the inputs used by the evaluation processes is based on checking the data against other sources of

information accepted as standard. These checks detect errors in the historical series such as repetitions, data outside the range,

missing data, etc. As well as these periodic checks of the historical data loaded, the daily data that feed these series are subject to

a data quality process to guarantee their integrity.

The choice of proxies is based on the correlation detected between the performance of the factor to be entered and the proxy

factor. For equity, a Ridge regression model is used, and for the rest of the risk factors, the Simple Linear Regression model is

used, selecting the proxy with the best coefficient of determination (R2) for the entire period for which returns are available for

both series. Next, the factor returns are reconstructed on the necessary dates, using the beta parameter estimated in the simple

linear regression

4.3.4.2.1.Valuation methodology and description of the independent price verification process

Articles 436 e), 455 c) CRR

EU MRB EU b)

The process for determining the fair value established in the Group seeks to ensure that financial assets and liabilities are properly

recorded following the IFRS 13 principles, which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to

transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market or most advantageous market, at

the measurement date.

The fair value is reached without making any deduction in transaction costs that might be incurred due to sale or disposal by other

means.

BBVA has established, at a geographic level, a structure of Risk Operational Admission and Product Governance Committees

responsible for validating and approving new products or types of financial assets and liabilities before being contracted. Local

management responsible for valuation, which are independent from the business are members of these committees.

| p.208 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

These areas are required to ensure, prior to the approval stage, the existence of not only technical and human resources, but also

adequate informational sources to measure the fair value of these financial assets and liabilities, in accordance with the rules

established by the valuation global area and using models that have been validated and approved by the responsible areas

complying with the governance of BBVA Group's official models.

Fair value hierarchy

All financial instruments, both assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, which at that point is equivalent to the

transaction price, unless there is evidence to the contrary in the market. Subsequently, depending on the type of financial

instrument, it may continue to be recognized at amortised cost or fair value through adjustments in the income statement or

equity.

When possible, the fair value is determined as the market price of a financial instrument. However, for many of the financial assets

and liabilities of the Group, especially in the case of derivatives, there is no market price available, so its fair value is estimated on

the basis of the price established in recent transactions involving similar instruments or, in the absence thereof, by using

mathematical measurement models that are sufficiently tried and trusted by the international financial community. The estimates

of the fair value derived from the use of such models take into consideration the specific features of the asset or liability to be

measured and, in particular, the various types of risk associated with such asset or liability. However, the limitations inherent in the

measurement models and possible inaccuracies in the assumptions and parameters required by these models may mean that the

estimated fair value of an asset or liability does not exactly match the price for which the asset or liability could be exchanged or

settled on the date of its measurement.

Additionally, for financial assets and liabilities that show significant uncertainty in inputs or model parameters used for valuation,

criteria are established to measure said uncertainty and activity limits are set based on these. Finally, these measurements are

compared, as much as possible, against other sources such as the measurements obtained by the business teams and/or those

obtained by other market participants.

The process for determining the fair value requires the classification of the financial assets and liabilities according to the

measurement processes used as set forth below:

–Level 1: valuation using directly the quotation of the instrument, observable and readily and regularly available from

independent price sources and referenced to active markets that the entity can access at the measurement date. The

instruments classified within this level are fixed-income securities, equity instruments and certain derivatives.

–Level 2: valuation of financial instruments with commonly accepted techniques that use inputs obtained from observable

data in markets.

–Level 3: valuation of financial instruments with valuation techniques that use significant unobservable inputs in the

market. As of December 31, 2025, the affected instruments at fair value accounted for approximately 0.70% of financial

assets and 0.47% of the Group’s financial liabilities. Model selection and validation is undertaken by control areas outside

the business areas.

Full revaluation is used for most financial products at BBVA Group.

In addition, the Group calculates Prudent Valuation Adjustments (PVA) for all instruments valued at fair value. PVA is an additional

or conservative adjustment to the fair value that allows a more prudent assessment to be obtained by considering sources of risks

| p.209 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

that exist in the calculation of the fair value (uncertainty inputs, risk model, etc). A detailed breakdown of the method for

calculating PVAs for the Group is below:

4.3.4.2.2.Market risk in  2025

Articles 438 h), 455 d), e) CRR

The Group’s market risk related to its trading portfolio remained in 2025 at low levels compared to other risks managed by BBVA,

particularly credit risk. This is due to the nature of the business. In 2025, the average VaR was €33 million, above the figure of

2024, with a maximum level in the year reached on April 28, 2025 of €44 million. The evolution in the BBVA Group’s market risk

during  2025, measured as VaR with a 99% confidence level and a 1-day horizon (shown in Millions of Euros) is as follows:

image25.jpg

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 the VaR was €29 million and €34 million, respectively, with the following breakdown:

By type of market risk assumed by the Group's trading portfolio, the main risk factor for the Group continued to be that linked to

interest rates, with a weight of 69% of the total as of December 31, 2025 (this figure includes the spread risk). The relative weight

of this risk decreased by 8 percentage points compared with the close of 2024. Exchange rate risk accounted for 17% of the total

risk, which implies an increase of 6 percentage points compared with the close of 2024, while equity risk accounted for 3%,

maintaining its weight compared with the close of 2024. The volatility and correlation risk accounted for 11%, which implies an

increase of 3 percentage points compared with the close of 2024.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, capital requirements for market risk under the internal model were mainly affected by the reduction

in capital requirements at BBVA, S.A., SVaR capital requirements decreased mainly at BBVA, S.A. and, to a lesser extent, at BBVA

Mexico. The IRC remained stable, as the increase in Mexico offset the decline in Spain.

Capital requirements at BBVA, S.A. fell as of December 31, 2025, mainly due to the decline in capital requirements for SVaR as a

result of lower overall exposure to the main interest rate and credit spread factors, with VaR falling to a lesser extent for the same

reason. IRC capital requirements decreased due to bond hedging, as well as a lower nominal value in the corporate issuer portfolio.

| p.214 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Capital requirements at BBVA Mexico remained stable at September 2025 levels, with IRC growing due to an increase in the

corporate bond position. This increase was offset by a decrease in SVaR and an increase in currency exposure. VaR remained

stable.

4.3.4.2.3Stress testing

Article 455 a).iii) CRR

All the tasks associated with stress, methodologies, scenarios of market variables or reports are undertaken in coordination with

the Group’s Risk Areas.

A number of stress tests are carried out on the BBVA Group's trading portfolios. First, global and local historical scenarios are used

that replicate the behavior of an extreme past event, such as the collapse of Lehman Brothers or the Tequilazo crisis. These stress

tests are complemented with simulated scenarios, where the aim is to generate scenarios that have a significant impact on the

different portfolios, but without being anchored to any specific historical scenario.

Finally, for some portfolios or positions, fixed stress tests are also carried out that have a significant impact on the market

variables affecting these positions.

Historical scenarios

The historical benchmark stress scenario for the BBVA Group is Lehman Brothers, whose sudden collapse in September 2008 led

to a significant impact on the behavior of financial markets at a global level. The following are the most relevant effects of this

historical scenario:

–Credit shock: reflected mainly in the increase of credit spreads and downgrades in credit ratings.

–Increased volatility in most of the financial markets giving rise to a great deal of variation in the prices of different assets

(currency, equity, debt).

–Liquidity shock in the financial systems, reflected by a major movement in interbank curves, particularly in the shortest

sections of the euro and dollar curves.

Risk | | --- | --- |

Simulated scenarios

Unlike the historical scenarios, which are fixed and therefore not suited to the composition of the risk portfolio at all times, the

scenario used for the exercises of economic stress is based on resampling methodology. This methodology is based on the use of

dynamic scenarios that are recalculated periodically depending on the main risks affecting the trading portfolios. On a data window

wide enough to collect different periods of stress (data are taken from January 1, 2008 until the date of the assessment), a

simulation is performed by resampling of historic observations, generating a distribution of losses and gains that serve to analyze

extreme market events within the selected historical window.

The advantage of this methodology is that the period of stress is not predetermined, but depends on the portfolio maintained at

each time, and making a large number of simulations (10,000 simulations) allows a greater richness of information for the analysis

of expected shortfall than what is available in the scenarios included in the calculation of VaR.

The main features of this approach are:

a) the generated simulations respect the correlation structure of the data

b) there is flexibility in the inclusion of new risk factors

c) it allows the introduction of a lot of variability in the simulations (desirable for considering extreme events).

The impact of the stress tests by simulated scenarios (Stress VaR 95% at 20 days, Expected Shortfall 97,5 % at 20 days and

Stress VaR 99% at 1 day) is shown below.

4.3.4.2.4.Backtesting

Artículo 455 a).iv), g) CRR

The internal market risk model is validated on a regular basis by backtesting in both, BBVA, S.A. and Global Markets Mexico (in

BBVA Mexico). The aim of backtesting is to validate the quality and precision of the internal market risk model used by BBVA

Group to estimate the maximum daily loss of a portfolio, at a 99% level of confidence and a 250-day time horizon, by comparing

the results of those entities and the risk measurements generated by the internal market risk model. These tests showed that the

internal market risk model of both, BBVA, S.A. and Global Markets Mexico is adequate and precise.

| p.216 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Introduction

The ex-post or Backtesting validation is based on the comparison of the periodic results of the portfolio with the market risk

measures from the established measurement system. The validity of a VaR model is particularly dependent on whether the

empirical reality of the results does not enter into open contradiction with what is expected in the model. If the observed results

were sufficiently adjusted to what was predicted by the model, it would be rated as good, and if the discrepancy were notable,

revisions would be required in order to correct possible errors or modifications and to improve quality.

In order to determine whether the results have been sufficiently adjusted to the risk measurements, it is necessary to establish

objective criteria, which are specified in a series of validation tests carried out with a given methodology. In establishing the most

appropriate methodology, the criteria recommended by Basel have been largely followed as they are considered appropriate.

Validation test

In the comparison between results and risk measurements, a key element that is of interest is the confidence that the losses do

not exceed the VaR risk measurements made more than a number of times according to the level of confidence adopted in the

model. The validation test presented below, which focuses on contrasting this aspect, emphasizes that the risk measurement

model is underestimating the risk that is actually being borne.

For the establishment of a hypothesis comparison test, we start from the observed results and try to infer whether there is enough

evidence to reject the model (the null hypothesis that the trust of the model is established is not met).

In cases where the model functions properly, the VaR measurement indicates that the variation of the value of a portfolio in a given

time horizon will not exceed the value obtained in a percentage of times determined by the level of confidence. In other words, the

probability of having a loss that is higher than the VaR measurement, what is called an exception, will be 1%, and the probability

that the exception will not occur will be 99%.

GREEN Zone: model<br><br>acceptance zone It is characterised as being an area in which there is a high probability of accepting a suitable model and a<br><br>low probability of accepting an unsuitable model. This is defined by the set for which the accumulated<br><br>probability of less than 95%, with the null hypothesis proving correct. It covers a number between zero<br><br>and four exceptions.
YELLOW zone:<br><br>ambiguous zone Possible results for both a suitable and inadequate model. It begins when the accumulated probability is<br><br>greater than equal to 95% (it must be less than 99.99%), with the null hypothesis proving correct. It<br><br>covers a number of between five and nine exceptions.
RED zone: model<br><br>rejection zone High probability that the model is unsuitable and unlikely to reject if suitable. It is defined by the fact that<br><br>the level of significance is less than 0.1% or, which is the same, the accumulated probability is greater than<br><br>or equal to 99.99%, with the null hypothesis proving correct. It corresponds to a number of exceptions<br><br>equal to or greater than ten.

shape-d5b5af724d229a6c.gif

To carry out this test it is advisable to have, at least, a one-year historical series of both results and risk estimates on a daily basis.

The criterion used is perfectly adapted to the priority of supervisory, which is to avoid situations where excess risk for which the

entity is not prepared jeopardizes its survival. However, the use of risk measurements as a tool for managing positions entails a

concern that the risk measurements are adjusted to the real risk on both sides: not only is there concern that the risk is being

underestimated, but also that It may be overestimating.

At the end of December 31, 2025, the model is in the green zone of acceptance of the model, both in BBVA SA and BBVA Mexico.

Backtesting results

Regulatory backtesting is made up of two types: Hypothetical Backtesting and Actual Backtesting:

–Hypothetical Backtesting is defined as the contrast of the Hypothetical P&L on the estimated VaR, the day before the

performance of said result. Actual Backtesting is defined as the contrast with the Actual P&L on the same estimated VaR,

the day before the performance of said result.

–Actual Backtesting was implemented and entered into force on January 1, 2013, as a result of the transposition in the

national legal order through the Bank of Spain Circular 4/2011 of November 30, of the CRD III that introduces Basel 2.5 in

the European Union. The results that are used for the construction of both types of Backtesting are based on the actual

results of the management tools.

According to Article 369 of the CRR, the P&L used in Backtesting should have a sufficient level of granularity in order to be shown

at the “top-of-house” level, differentiating between Hypothetical and Actual P&L. In addition to the above, the historical

Backtesting series will include a minimum of one year.

Actual P&L

The Actual P&L contains the complete management results, including the intraday operation and the daily and non-daily valuation

adjustments, discounting the results of the franchises and commissions of each day and each desk.

The valuation functions and the parameters of the valuation models used in the calculation of the Actual P&L are the same as

those used in the calculation of the Economic P&L.

Hypothetical P&L

The Hypothetical P&L contains the management results without the P&L of the daily activity, it is said, excluding intraday

operations, premiums, and commissions. It is calculated using the end-of-day or “frozen” portfolio, applying official prices and

valuation models The data is provided by the management systems and broken down by desk, in adherence with the Volcker Rule

on desk distribution.

The valuation functions and the parameters assigned to the valuation models used in the calculation of the Hypothetical P&L are

the same as those used in the calculation of the Actual P&L.

The P&L figures used in both Backtesting types exclude Credit Valuation Adjustments (CVA), Debt Valuation Adjustments (DVA)

and Additional Valuation Adjustments (AVA). As well as any change in value resulting from migrations from rating to default,

except those reflected in prices by the market itself, since the changes in value due to migration from rating to default are included

in the Counterparty Credit Risk metrics.

Perimeter of the backtesting and internal model exceptions

The calculation scope of VaR and P&L (Hypothetical and Actual) is limited to the totality of the Trading Book portfolios of the

Global Markets Internal Model of BBVA, S.A. and BBVA Mexico.

All the positions belonging to the Banking Book, the portfolios under the Standardised Approach and the trading activity with

Hedge Funds (this activity was excluded from the Internal Model in its original approval) are thus excluded from this scope of

application.

| p.218 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

It is considered that there is an exception at the Top of House level, when the two following circumstances concur in the same

internal model and date:

–The Hypothetical P&L and/or the Actual P&L are negative.

–With an amount equal to or greater than the maximum between VaR without smoothing and VaR with smoothing

calculated based on the previous day

For the purposes of calculating the number of exceptions of the Regulatory Backtesting, exceptions will only be taken into account

within a mobile window of 250 consecutive Business Days at the Top of House level in each respective internal model.

At the end of December 31, 2025, there was not any exception nor in BBVA SA neither in BBVA Mexico Backtesting.

4.4.Structural risk

image10.jpg

The structural risks are defined, in general terms, as the possibility of suffering losses in the banking book due to adverse

movements in market risk factors.

In the Group, the following types of structural risks are defined, according to their nature: interest rate risk, credit spread risk,

exchange rate risk, equity risk, and actuarial risk.

The scope of structural risks in the Group excludes market risks in the trading book that are clearly delimited and separated and

are part of the Market Risks category.

The Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO) is the main responsible body for the management of structural risks regarding

liquidity/ funding, interest rate, credit spread, currency, equity and solvency. Every month, with the participation of the CEO and

representatives from the areas of Finance, Risks and Business Areas, this committee monitors the structural risks and is

presented with proposals with regard to action plans related with its management for its approval. These management proposals

are made by the Finance area with a forward-looking focus, maintaining the alignment with the Risk Appetite Framework, trying to

guarantee the recurrence of results and financial stability, as well as to preserve the solvency of the entity. All balance sheet

management units have a local ALCO, which is permanently attended by members of the Corporate Center, and there is a

corporate ALCO where management strategies are monitored and presented in the Group's subsidiaries.

The GRM area acts as an independent unit, ensuring adequate separation between the management and risk control functions,

and is responsible for ensuring that the structural risks in the Group are managed according to the strategy approved by the Board

of Directors.

Consequently, GRM deals with the identification, measurement, monitoring and control of those risks and their reporting to the

corresponding corporate bodies. Through the GRMC, it performs the function of control and risk assessment and is responsible for

developing the strategies, policies, procedures and infrastructure necessary to identify, evaluate, measure and manage the

significant risks that the BBVA Group faces. To this end, GRM, through the corporate unit of Structural Risks, proposes a scheme

of limits that defines the risk appetite set for each of the relevant structural risk types, both at Group level and by management

units, which will be reviewed annually, reporting the situation periodically to the Group's corporate bodies as well as to the GRMC.

Additionally, both the management system and the control and measurement system for structural risks are necessarily adjusted

to the Group's internal control model, complying with the evaluation and certification processes that comprise it. In this sense, the

tasks and controls necessary for its scope of action have been identified and documented, supporting a regulatory framework

which includes specific processes and measures for structural risks, from a broad geographical perspective.

Within the three lines of defense scheme in which BBVA's internal control model is based according to the most advanced

standards in terms of internal control, the first line of defense is maintained by the Finance area, which is responsible for managing

the structural risk.

| p.224 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

As a second line of defense, GRM is in charge of identifying risks, and establishing policies and control models, periodically

evaluating their effectiveness.

In the second line of defense, there are also the Internal Risk Control units, which independently review the Structural Risk control,

and Internal Financial Control, which carries out a review of the design and effectiveness of the operational controls over structural

risk management.

The third line of defense is represented by the Internal Audit area, an independent unit within BBVA Group, which is responsible for

reviewing specific controls and processes.

Articles  435 (1) a), 448 (1) e), f) CRR

EU IRRBBA a), b)

The structural interest-rate risk in the Banking Book (“IRRBB”) is defined as the potential change on the earnings, through the

impact on an entity’s net interest income and on the valuation of instruments accounted at fair value, as well as on the economic

value of the equity due to variations in market interest rates.

Furthermore, the credit spread risk in the banking book (CSRBB)  arises from the potential impacts on the earnings and/or on the

value of equity of the banking book produced by a variation in the level of market credit spreads  that are not explained by default

or migration risk or by movements in market interest rates.

Structural interest rate and credit spread risk managing is carried out  from a double perspective, of the economic value of equity

and  of the earnings, in a broad sense, including the net interest income management and the banking book instruments

accounted at fair value with an impact on P&L and/or on equity monitoring.

Besides, the banking book instruments accounted for its market value (fair value) are subject to a specific monitoring, due to their

impact on risk and on the capital, through OCI (Other Comprehensive Income) or profit and loss (P&L).

Likewise, within the evaluation of risk sources, climate change risks (ESG) is considered through the incorporation of their

potential effect on structural interest rate risk factors. This risk materializes on IRRBB through the potential impact on the

valuation of fixed income portfolios (reflected in their credit spread) due to their exposure to transition risk.

Structural interest rate risk perimeter is limited to the structural balance sheet (banking book), and includes all those entities

whose structural balance sheet contributes to the banking book of the Group, as well as their banking subsidiaries. All trading

activities (trading book), developed by the Global Markets unit, are excluded from the scope, as they are included in the market

risk monitoring and control process.

For its part, credit spread risk in the banking book monitoring is limited to those banking book instruments sensitive to market

credit spread changes that can impact on net interest income or on equity.

Under the value approach, within the scope of CSRBB, in any case they will be included those banking book instruments whose

change in their fair value has an impact on equity, via profi t and loss account or other comprehensive income (OCI), as well as

other assets not accounted for at fair value that are characterized by having observable market prices and could affect equity in

exceptional situations where it would be necessary to generate liquidity through their sale or use as collateral .

From an earnings perspective, credit spread risk comes from the potential impacts on the NII caused by changes in the

contractual spreads of the new volumes of the banking book, along with the impacts on fair value accounted portfolios.

| p.225 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The exposure of a financial entity to adverse interest rates and credit spreads movements is a risk inherent to the development of

the banking business, which is also, in turn, an opportunity to create economic value. Therefore, interest rate and credit spread

risk in the banking book must be effectively managed so that it is limited in accordance with the entity’s equity and in line with the

expected economic result.

In BBVA, the purpose of structural interest rate risk management is to maintain the recurrent generation of earnings  in the event

of market interest rate fluctuations, through the contribution to the net interest income and the control of the potential impacts on

the mark-to-market of the fair value accounted portfolios, as well as to limit the capital consumption due to structural interest rate

risk. Likewise, the spread risk management in the banking book is aimed at limiting the equity impact of market credit spread

movements on the valuation of the structural balance sheet, mainly associated with fixed-income instruments which are used in

balance sheet risk management. The objective is to keep this risk at levels consistent with the equity of the Group, while controlling

the effect on earnings through net interest income and the mark-to-market of instruments accounted for at fair value.

In order to manage the structural interest rate risk so that it remains within the approved limits, Global ALM (Balance-sheet

management) uses fixed-rate bond portfolios with a conservative risk profile, as they are mainly invested in the country's

sovereign bonds, which can be classified for accounting under the HTC&S or HTC modality. Additionally, financial derivatives are

also used, which have, except for duly justified and approved exceptions, hedge accounting treatment of both Fair Value Hedge

and Cash Flow Hedge. Derivative instruments (like swaps, forward agreements or interest rate options) may be used, complying

with the accounting requirements regarding their treatment as hedges with the aim of minimizing the P&L impacts. Before being

implemented, these tools have to be previously analysed and approved in the assets and liabilities committees (both at the local

level and at the holding level) and are subsequently followed up in the next committees.

Structural interest rate and credit spread risk are embedded in the economic capital adequacy process, in order to assure that it is

adequately considered during the general allocation of capital of the entity.

The management of these risks is decentralized, and is carried out in each Group’s entity with a robust supervision and

coordination from the corporate center, keeping the exposure to interest rates and credit spreads movements aligned with the

strategy and the target risk profile of the Group, and in compliance with the regulatory requirements according to the EBA

guidelines and the different local and supranational supervisory authorities. Besides, in order to preserve the capital position of the

Group, the corporate unit of GRM-SSRR monitors the banking book exposure to interest rates at a consolidated level.

4.4.1.2.Nature of IRRBB and CSRBB

Articles 435 (1) a), 448 (1) e).i), iii), v), f) CRR

EU OVA f), EU IRRBBA b), c), d)

Structural interest rate risk may arise from different sources, which are part of the four types of risk faced by the entities:

–Repricing Risk: arises due to different maturity (fixed-rate products) or repricing (variable rate products) periods of

assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet positions.

–Curve risk: arises from a change on the slope and/or curvature of the yield curve as a result of different fluctuations in

each time slot.

–Basis risk: arises from imperfect correlation between changes on the reference interest rates for different instruments

with similar repricing and maturity characteristics.

–Option risk: arises from the (implicit or explicit) options associated with certain balance sheet transactions that may

change their future flows and generate mismatches in their maturities.

To monitor and control IRRBB and CSRBB, a comprehensive set of metrics is assessed on a regular basis, from a dual perspective

of economic value (EVE) and earnings, where impacts on net interest income (NII) and on the value of instruments accounted at

fair value are considered, including sensitivity and probabilistic measures.

| p.226 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Among others, EVE and NII sensitivity measures to parallel interest rate shifts are calculated, broken down by currency and yield

curve. In addition, the aggregate cross-currency sensitivity is calculated in order to obtain a figure of the total sensitivity of the

entity to parallel shifts in multiple interest rate curves (currencies), considering the volatility of the currencies and their correlation

among each other.

Scenarios of parallel and sudden rate shifts of different magnitudes are evaluated. The general shift reference is +/-100 bps, as

well as the specific shock size calibrated for each currency according to its volatility with a 99% confidence level, which is used to

obtain the aggregate sensitivity. Negative rates scenarios are allowed until plausible levels according to the observed volatility.

Likewise, MtM sensitivity to parallel interest rates shocks is monitored in isolation for the structural balance sheet assets

accounted at fair value, including fixed-income portfolios and derivatives. Furthermore, credit spread sensitivities are also

estimated by comparing the MtM of the baseline scenario with the MtM recalculated after applying a consistent shock to the credit

spreads of the discount rates curve of each security (market spread).

These metrics are complemented by the sensitivity on earnings, which adds the impact of a parallel and instantaneous interest

rate shock, on the net interest income and on the future market value of the instruments of the Banking Book accounted at fair

value, at the end of the projection horizon, generally 12 months.

The probabilistic measures are the main monitoring metrics, and they are included in the Risk Appetite by type of risk metrics.

These measures complete the sensitivity analysis metrics as they consider additional effects like changes on the slope and shape

of the curve or the basis among interest rate yield curves (“risk free”), as well as ramp shocks (gradual) of interest rates and credit

spread shocks. The simulation methodology is based on an analysis of the major IRs components, on the basis of which different

scenarios are generated for each currency with a specific probability of occurrence, calculating then the impact in terms of value

and earnings for each scenario.

The IRRBB and CSRBB probabilistic metrics are composed by the Economic Capital (EC), and the Earnings at risk (EaR), and they

estimate, respectively, the maximum negative impact for a given horizon and confidence level, on the Economic Value and the

projected Earnings, driven by movements in the market interest rate and credit spreads levels.

The periodicity of the calculation of the main risk measures is monthly, except for the contribution of the fair value instruments

which is monitored on a weekly basis.

These measures are complemented with the periodical calculation of other scenarios that complete the analysis of the entity risk,

such as, changes of the slope/curvature, gradual shifts (ramps), individual shifts by tenor, individual shocks by curve (basis), or

changes in model assumptions.

In addition to the analysis under normal conditions, stress tests are regularly run to assess the level of exposure to interest rate

risk under stress scenarios of market variables. The stress scenarios are simulated based on historical information, and consider

directional movements, changes in the slope, curvature and basis of the yield curves according to market stress conditions. These

scenarios are evaluated from the two risk perspectives, economic value and net interest income.

The stress exercise is completed with a reverse stress test whose objective is to identify those scenarios capable of producing a

certain impact within a set range of values.

Likewise, the stress scenarios of the market variables are complemented with stress tests to the main assumptions of the model.

Finally, the analysis of IRRBB scenarios under the ICAAP (Internal Capacity Adequacy Assessment Process) and GRM Stress

Program processes are carried out, which assess, on a regular basis, global stress situations under a comprehensive view for the

set of financial risks.

4.4.1.3.Key assumptions of the model

Article 448 (1) c), g) CRR

EU IRRBBA g), (1), (2)

In order to measure structural interest rate risk, the setting of assumptions on the evolution and behaviour of certain balance

sheet items is particularly relevant, especially those related to products without an explicit or contractual maturity which

characteristics are not established in their contractual terms and must be therefore estimated

The assumptions that characterize these balance sheet items must be understandable for the areas and bodies involved in risk

management and control and remain duly updated, justified and documented. The modelling of these assumptions must be

conceptually reasonable and consistent with the evidence based on historical experience, reviewed at least once a year and, if any,

the behaviour of the customers induced by the business areas.  In order to provide the required dynamism to enhance their

accuracy and reflect specific market or management circumstances, risk models and metrics may incorporate parameters or

adjustments based on expert judgment, subject to the internal governance established in this regard. These assumptions are

regularly subject to a sensitivity analysis to assess and understand the impact of the modelling on the risk metrics.

In view of the heterogeneity of the financial markets, customers and products in the multiple jurisdictions, each one of the entities

of the Group is responsible for determining the local behaviour assumptions to be applied to the balance sheet items, always under

the guidelines and the applicability of the corporate models existing in the Group.

To calculate IRRBB measures, internal models are used to set the behavioural assumptions. The key modelling assumptions

applied are:

Non-maturity Deposits (NMDs)

The NMDs internal model distinguishes between volatile, semi stable and stable deposits.

The volatile portion of NMDs is stripped out using the moving average of the historical series, which is shifted down according to

the volatility of the error of the regression. The volatile part of deposits is assumed that matures at short term (<1 Month).

The semi-stable amount corresponds to the part of the trend balance that is not yet consolidated, either because it is a recently

formed balance, or because it has a behavior linked to external factors (non-transactional amounts excess, competition,

investment alternatives, etc). Thus, it is considered that it is exposed to a greater probability of exit and that it may be influenced

by the management measures applied, so that it is assigned a gradual run-off in the medium term and normally linked to the

movement of market factors.

Meanwhile, the stable amount of deposits is run off to long term following a decay distribution estimated according to the

conditional probabilities of maturity during the life of the product. Besides, based on the observed data and applying a

conservatism criterion, a maximum life around 20 years is assumed, preventing the maturing cash flows to extend beyond that

time.

The following table shows the average maturities obtained by the NMDs internal model:

shape-1d341bb152a34610.gif

| TABLE 61. AVERAGE MATURITIES FOR NMDS (YEARS. 12-31-2025) | | --- || | Core deposits | Full amount of deposits | | --- | --- | --- | | Retail transactional | 6.00 | 3.55 | | Retail non-transactional | 5.68 | 3.29 | | Wholesale | 4.55 | 1.43 | | p.228 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Furthermore, the model also estimates the evolution of the mix of customer deposits, considering the potential migration between

different types of deposits (demand / time deposits) under different interest rates scenarios. The potential asymmetry between

the behaviour of balance stability in interest rate increase and decrease scenarios is considered in the analysis.

Finally, for those deposits with administered rates, the model estimates the translation dynamic of interest rates shocks to these

accounts’ remuneration, based on the analysis of its relationship with the evolution of market interest rates. For retail accounts a

general floor is set at 0% assuming that in negative interest rate environments retail customer rate will never be negative.

Revolving Credit cards

They mature gradually according to the monthly expected average repayment rate.

Expectations about the exercise of interest rate options (explicit and implicit), both purchased or sold, under different interest rate

scenarios.

Loans subject to prepayment risk

The balance is segmented into several categories based on the characteristics of the loan and/or the client (that is, loan rate,

original face amount, original maturity, scoring. etc.)

The “prepayment” behaviour, understood as all extraordinary payments over those established in the regular payment schedule

and that therefore changes the contractual payment scheme, is then analysed in order to be modelled. The model captures total

and partial prepayments, if relevant.

The potential link with the interest rates evolution is also examined, and incorporated in the model when the incentive of the client

to pre-cancel determines the prepayment speed. In this case, the model adjusts the prepayment rates applied in each interest rate

scenario.

Customer deposits with early redemption optionality

An early cancellation assumption is established for those deposits with a redemption option before maturity. The cancellation rate

is based on the economic incentive of the client, and linked to the level of market interest rates, if applicable.

Treatment of Non performing exposures (NPEs)

The amount of NPEs, net of provisions, is considered interest rate sensitive, while the provisioned amount is considered non-

earning, consistently with the treatment of the allowances in the liability side. A maturity ladder is assigned to the expected

recovery flows of the NPEs based on the future cash flows distribution which is estimated according to the internal Loss Given

Default recovery model.

The governance of structural interest rate risk models is subject to internal model risk regulation, under the scope of GRM-

Analytics. In this way, they must be properly inventoried and catalogued and comply with the requirements for their development,

updating and management of the changes included in the internal procedures. Likewise, they are subject to the corresponding

internal validations and monitoring requirements established based on their relevance, as well as back-testing procedures against

experience to confirm the validity of the assumptions applied.

4.4.1.4.Evolution of IRRBB and CSRBB

Article 448 (1) e).iv) CRR

EU IRRBBA f)

The year 2025 has been influenced by the geopolitical context, notably the increase in the United States tariffs, as well as

developments and expectations regarding inflation and central bank actions.

In the United States, there have been declines across the entire interest rate curve due to the deceleration signs and greater

prospects for interest rate cuts by the Fed. In contrast, Europe has seen a rebound in yields, particularly at the long end of the

curve, mainly due to the change of course in Germany's fiscal policy. The peripheral curves are still supported with spreads against

German bonds narrowing over the year. In Mexico, the sovereign curve has fallen in line with United States rates. In Turkey, yield

curves were more volatile as a result of both the political situation and inflation trends and expectations. However, it is worth

noting the favorable performance of credit default swaps (CDS) and sovereign bonds denominated in hard currency since March.

Lastly, in South America, the curves show mixed performance, with upturns in some regions, such as Colombia, and downturns in

others, such as Peru. Overall, ALCO14 portfolios have performed positively in 2025.

Regarding benchmark interest rates in the main areas where the Group operates:

–The ECB has cut interest rates by a total of 100 basis points throughout the year until its meeting in July 2025, due to the

convergence of inflation towards the target, maintaining the rates without changes in its last meeting in December 2025.

Thus, the benchmark interest rate in the euro area stood at 2.15% at the end of December 2025, the rate on the deposit

facility at 2.00% and the rate on the marginal lending facility at 2.40%.

–In Mexico, the monetary policy rate stood at 7.0% at the end of December 2025, 300 basis points below the end of 2024.

–The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) has continued its monetary easing process, supported by improved

inflation setting the monetary policy rate at 38.0% at the end of December 2025, which represents a decrease of 950

basis points since the end of December of the previous year.

–In Argentina, the central bank abandoned the official interest rate as a monetary anchor and began to regulate the

monetary base using other tools such as setting reserve requirements or intervening in the foreign exchange market for

its management.

–In Colombia, the reference rate stood at 9.25% at the end of December 2025, 25 basis points below the end of 2024.

–In Peru the official monetary policy rate closed at 4.25% as of December 2025, 75 basis points below the previous year's

closing level.

The BBVA Group, at an aggregate level, continues to maintain a limited risk profile, in accordance with the established objective in

the environment of a change of cycle to lower interest rates, with a positive sensitivity to interest rate increases in net interest

income. Effective management of the balance sheet structural risk enabled the Group to mitigate the negative impact of the low

interest rates in previous exercises, as well as to take advantage of the change in trend of interest rates and benefit from the

significant increases in 2022 and 2023, as well as mitigate the impact of the decreases during 2024 and 2025, which is reflected in

the strength and recurrence of the net interest income. By area, the main features are::

–Spain has a balance sheet characterized by a lending portfolio with a high proportion of variable-rate loans (mortgages

and corporate lending) and liabilities composed mainly by customer demand deposits. The ALCO portfolio acts as a

management lever and hedge for the balance sheet, mitigating its sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. The exposure of

the net interest income to movements in interest rates remains limited.

–Mexico continues to show a balance between fixed and variable interest rates balances, which results in a limited

sensitivity to interest rates fluctuations. Among the assets that are most sensitive to interest rate changes, the

| p.230 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

commercial portfolio stood out, while consumer and mortgage portfolios are mostly at a fixed rate. With regard to

customer funds, the high proportion of non-interest-bearing deposits, which are insensitive to interest rate movements,

should be highlighted. The ALCO portfolio is invested primarily in fixed-rate sovereign bonds with limited durations.

–In Turkey, the sensitivity of net interest income to rates remains limited in both local and foreign currencies, thanks to the

bank's management, with a low repricing gap between loans and deposits.

–In South America, the sensitivity of net interest income continues to be limited, since most of the countries in the area

have a fixed/variable composition stable between assets and liabilities. In addition, in balance sheets with several

currencies, the interest rate risk is managed for each of the currencies, showing a very low level of exposure.

The table below shows the profile of average structural interest rate risk and credit spread risk of fixed income portfolio in the

banking book classified as HtC&S in terms of sensitivities of the main currencies for the BBVA Group in 2025:

The key modelling and parametric assumptions used for internal calculations are the same as those used for the prescribed for the

SOT regulatory IRRBB metrics (as explained in the following section), except for the following settings:

–Multiple risk free discount curves are used in order to capture basis risk, instead of one single curve as for the SOT

calculations.

–Floors applied to negative rates in the internal risk scenarios are different from the one prescribed for EBA SOT scenarios.

–Cross-currency aggregation methods, based on historical correlation among currencies, are used.

–For the internal metrics, in the Net Interest Income (NII) projections it is applied a dynamic balance sheet growth

assumption, based on the updated financial planning.

4.4.1.5.IRRBB SOT regulatory metrics

Article 448 (1) a), b), d) CRR

EU IRRBBA h)

In the context of the SREP, CRD IV provides for a review and evaluation of the IRRBB. The main instrument of this assessment is

the Supervisory Outlier Test (SOT), which assesses the impact on Economic Value of Equity (EVE) and Net Interest Margin risks

(NII) of the banking book under different interest rate variation scenarios. This exercise allows comparability between entities.

As described above, the structural interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB) is part of the entity’s risk management

framework and is included in the internal capital self-assessment process as part of Pillar 2.

| p.231 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The table below shows the changes in the economic value of equity (EVE) and in net interest income (NII) shown as amounts in

millions of euros:

shape-cdf84d3acd945b4d.gif

EU IRRBB1 -  INTEREST RATE RISK IN THE BANKING BOOK | | --- || | ∆ EVE | ∆ EVE | ∆ NII | ∆ NII | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Currency | 12-31-2025 | 6-30-2025 | 12-31-2025 | 6-30-2025 | | Parallel up | (6,013) | (5,231) | 304 | 123 | | Parallel down | 2,254 | 1,813 | (1,190) | (976) | | Steepener | (800) | (53) | | | | Flattener | (531) | (1,232) | | | | Short rates up | (2,397) | (2,688) | | | | Short rates down | 949 | 1,275 | | |

The SOT regulatory metrics have been calculated as described in the guidelines.

IRRBB measures cover the principal exposures in currency EUR, USD, MXN, TRY and COP, up to a cumulative percentage of the

banking book above 90%.

Reported changes of the economic value of equity (EVE) are calculated as follows:

–Changes in EVE under the six supervisory interest rate shock scenarios

–The supervisory maturity-dependent post-shock interest rate floor (-1.5%) has been applied for each currency

–Changes in EVE are expressed in amounts, valued in millions of euros (at the exchange rate of each date).

–Aggregate EVE change for each interest rate shock scenario has been calculated by adding together any negative and

positive changes to EVE occurring in each currency. Positive changes have been weighted by a factor of 50%.

–Run-off balance sheet assumption: existing positions mature and are not replaced

–Own equity has been excluded from the computation of the exposure level

–Commercial margins are included in the interest cash flows

–Cash flows have been discounted using one only risk-free rate yield curve

Reported changes of the net interest income (NII) are calculated as follows:

–Changes in projected NII over a forward-looking rolling 12-month period under the two parallel supervisory interest rate

shock scenario out of the six supervisory shock scenarios for EVE

–The supervisory maturity-dependent post-shock interest rate floor (-1.5%) has been applied for each currency

–Instantaneous shocks are applied

–Changes in NII  are expressed in amounts, valued in millions of euros (at the exchange rate of each date).

–Aggregate NII change for each interest rate shock scenario has been calculated by adding together any negative and

positive changes to NII occurring in each currency. Positive changes have been weighted by a factor of 50%.

–Constant balance sheet assumption

–New exposures are repriced considering the margin of new productions at the reporting date.

–Commercial margins are included in the interest cash flows

| p.232 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Fees and commissions attributable for interest rate changes are not included

SOT metrics significance and evolution

SOT IRRBB metrics at Group level remain in a moderate risk level, maintaining the negative exposure to parallel down scenario for

the NII approach, while in the case of the EVE, the worst scenario among the 6 prescriptive scenarios corresponds to the parallel

up scenario.

NII risk remained contained during the semester, in line with the continuation of strategies aimed at protecting net interest income.

These actions, based on proactive management focused on locking in asset profitability and taking advantage of the positive slope

of the yield curve, have made it possible to preserve margin generation in an environment characterized by the exhaustion of the

interest rate cutting cycle, thereby supporting the extension of these strategies over time.

Conversely, these same measures may lead to an increase in value risk on the balance sheet, as they extend asset duration. This

effect is primarily observed in the balance sheets of BBVA México and BBVA, S.A., which account for the largest value impacts in

the SOT exercise, as a result of the application of larger shocks in the Mexican peso and the greater exposure assumed by BBVA,

S.A.

Additionally, initiatives aimed at optimizing capital ratios at year-end generate further pressure on the indicators in relative terms

with respect to Tier 1.

4.4.2.Structural exchange rate risk

Article 435 a) CRR

Structural exchange rate risk is defined as the possibility of impacts on solvency, equity value and results driven by fluctuations in

the exchange rates due to exposures in foreign currencies.

Structural exchange rate risk is inherent to the business of international banking groups, such as BBVA, that develop their

activities in different geographical areas and currencies. At a consolidated level, structural exchange rate risk arises from the

consolidation of holdings in subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the euro. Its management is centralized in order to

optimize the joint management of permanent foreign currency exposures, taking diversification into account.

The purpose of structural exchange rate risk management is protecting solvency by limiting volatility of the consolidated CET1

ratio and income to consolidate denominated in a currency other the euro in the Group, as well as to limit the capital requirements

under exchange rate fluctuations to which the Group is exposed due to its international diversification. The ALM Global corporate

unit, through the ALCO, is responsible for the management of this risk all through an active hedging policy, deliberately taken for

each objective, and fully aligned with the management strategy.

At the corporate level, the risk monitoring metrics included in the limits framework are aligned with the Risk Appetite Framework,

and are targeted to control the effects on the solvency through the economic capital metric and the fluctuations in the Common

Equity Tier I fully loaded (CET1 fully loaded) consolidated ratio, as well as the maximum deviation in the Group's attributable profit.

The probabilistic metrics make it possible to estimate the joint impact of exposure to different currencies taking into account the

different variability in exchange rates and their correlations. These metrics are supplemented with additional assessment

indicators.

The suitability of these risk assessment metrics is reviewed on a regular basis through backtesting exercises. The final element of

structural exchange rate risk control is the stress and scenario analysis aimed to assess the vulnerabilities of foreign currency

structural exposure not contemplated by the risk metrics and to serve as an additional tool when making management decisions.

The scenarios are based both on historical situations simulated by the risk model and on the risk scenarios provided by BBVA

Research.

| p.233 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The purpose of the exchange rate risk management of BBVA's long term investments, which arises mainly from its foreign

franchises, is to preserve the capital ratios of the Group and to maintain the stability of the profits. During 2025, the US dollar

depreciated significantly against the euro (-11.6%). This depreciation was concentrated in the first half of the year, when the

aggressiveness of US tariff policy generated a climate of distrust towards the dollar. Among emerging market currencies, the

Mexican peso stood out with an appreciation (+2.0% against the euro), supported by the perception of Mexico as a relative winner

of the trade war. The Turkish lira was heavily penalised in 2025 (-27.2%), reflecting high inflation, which is nevertheless gradually

declining. Regarding the performance of South American currencies, the Peruvian sol weakened against the euro (-1.2%), the

Colombian peso showed a notable appreciation (+3.8%), while the Chilean peso depreciated by -2.9%. Finally, the Argentine peso

experienced a very significant depreciation (-37.4%), in an environment still marked by macroeconomic adjustments and high

financial volatility, despite progress in the economic stabilisation process.

BBVA maintains active management policies for its main investments in emerging countries with the objective of achieving, on

average, a hedging level of between 40% and 50% of the aggregate attributable profit in non-euro currencies that the Group

expects to generate over the next twelve months; and between 50% and 70% of the aggregate excess capital in non-euro

currencies within CET1. With respect to this solvency ratio, the sensitivities estimated as of year-end 2025 to 10% currency

depreciations are as follows: Mexican peso (-14 basis points); Turkish lira (-3 basis points); and US dollar (+12 basis points).

The evolution of the structural exchange risk requirements in 2025 is in section 4.3.3. of this Report.

For the years 2025 and 2024, the estimated sensitivities (in absolute terms) of the result attributable to the parent company are

shown below, taking into account the coverage, against depreciations and appreciations of 1% of the average rate in the main

currencies. To the extent that hedging positions are periodically modulated, the sensitivity estimate attempts to reflect an average

(or effective) sensitivity in the year:

4.4.3.Structural equity risk

Article 435 a) CRR

Equity risk in the banking book refers to the possibility of suffering losses in the value of positions in shares and other equity

instruments held in the banking book with long or medium term investment horizons due to fluctuations in the value of equity

indexes or shares.

BBVA Group's exposure to structural equity risk arises largely from minority shareholdings held on industrial and financial

companies, and in new business (innovation). This exposure is modulated in some portfolios with positions held on derivative

instruments on the same underlying assets, in order to adjust the portfolio sensitivity to potential changes in equity prices.

| p.234 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The structural equity risk management is aimed at increasing the income-generating capacity of those shares held by the Group,

limiting the capital requirements for equity risk and narrowing the impact on the solvency level through a proactive management of

the portfolio using hedges. The function of managing the main structural equity portfolios is a responsibility of the specialized units

of the corporate areas of Global ALM, Strategy & M&A and Client Solutions (Banking for Growth Companies). Their activity is

subject to the corporate structural equity risk management policy, complying with the defined management principles and Risk

Appetite Framework.

The structural equity risk metrics, designed by GRM according to the corporate model, contribute to the effective monitoring of

the risk by estimating the sensitivity and the capital necessary to cover the possible unexpected losses due to changes in the value

of the shareholdings in the Group's investment portfolio, with a level of confidence that corresponds to the objective rating of the

entity, taking into account the liquidity of the positions and the statistical behavior of the assets to be considered

In order to analyze the risk profile in depth, stress tests and scenario analysis of sensitivity to different simulated scenarios are

carried out. They are based on both past crisis situations and forecasts made by BBVA Research. These analyses are carried out

regularly to assess the vulnerabilities of structural equity exposure not contemplated by the risk metrics and to serve as an

additional tool when making management decisions.

Backtesting is carried out on a regular basis on the risk measurement model used.

For the third consecutive year, global equity markets posted significant gains in 2025, with double-digit increases in both Europe

and the United States. Following an optimistic start to the year, supported by a presumed pro-market orientation of the U.S.

administration, equity markets experienced a sharp setback in April after the United States announced substantial import tariffs

during the so-called “Liberation Day.” Nevertheless, the potential import tariff escalation subsequently subsided, paving the way

for a strong equity rally that continued uninterrupted through year-end. In the United States, the communications and technology

sectors led the advances, while in Europe the banking sector delivered a strong performance, topping European markets for the

second year in a row. From a geographical perspective, the Spanish stock market was among the strongest performers in Europe,

also driven by the financial sector, enabling it to surpass its historical peak for the first time since 2007.

Structural equity risk, measured in terms of economic capital, has not experienced any material changes over the past year. The

aggregate sensitivity of the BBVA Group’s consolidated equity to a 1% fall in the price of shares of the companies making up the

equity portfolio amounted to €-27 million as of December 31, 2025, the same as at December 2024. This estimation takes into

account the exposure in shares valued at market prices, or if not applicable, at fair value (excluding the positions in the Treasury

Area portfolios) and the net delta-equivalent positions in derivatives on the same underlyings.

4.4.3.1.Classification of equity exposure not included in the trading book

The Group distinguishes between equity exposures in investments in associates, capital instruments classified as financial assets

at fair value through other comprehensive income and non-trading financial assets mandatory at fair value through profit or loss.

The investments in associates are the investments in entities over which the Group has a significant influence. It is presumed that

there is significant influence when 20% or more of the voting rights of the subsidiary are held, directly or indirectly, unless it can be

clearly demonstrated that such influence does not exist. There are certain exceptions to this criterion that do not constitute

significant amounts for the Group. These investments in associates are valued using the equity method.

The remaining capital instruments not held for trading are classified as:

The financial assets recorded in the heading “Non-trading financial assets mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss" either

have contractual cash flows that do not met the conditions of the SPPI test, or are not covered by a business model whose

objective is either (i) to hold financial assets to collect contractual cash flows or (ii) achieved by collecting contractual cash flows

and selling financial assets.

| p.235 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Financial assets are classified in “Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss” only if such classification

eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from recognizing or

measuring such financial assets on different bases.

Assets recognized under this heading in the consolidated balance sheets are measured at their fair value. This category of

valuation implies the recognition of the information in the income statement as if it were an instrument valued at amortized cost,

while the instrument is valued at fair value in the balance sheet, At the time of initial recognition of specific investments in equity

instruments, the BBVA Group may make the irrevocable decision to present subsequent changes in fair value in other

comprehensive income.

4.4.3.2.Risk-weighted assets of investments in associates and capital instruments

A breakdown of the RWA to investments in associates and capital instruments by accounting portfolio and applicable method as of

December 31, 2025 is shown below:

The portfolio mainly includes the Group’s insurance companies, which for regulatory purposes are considered as investments in

associates. It also includes stakes in real estate investment companies and equity holdings in other sectors, with a significant stake

in Telefónica, Crea Madrid Nuevo Norte and Metrovacesa.

During 2025, the risk-weighted assets for equity risk declined, driven by both foreign exchange effects and regulatory impacts

(under the 'Other' heading).

Specifically, exposures in Collective Investment Undertakings (CIUs) were reclassified into their respective categories under the

standardized approach, while those with a 1,250% risk weight were deducted from CET1.

4.5.Liquidity Risk

image47.jpg

Liquidity and funding risk is defined as the incapacity of a bank in meeting its payment commitments due to lack of funds or that,

to face those commitments, should have to make use of funding under burdensome terms.

4.5.1.Liquidity and Funding strategy and planning

Articles 435 (1) a), e), 451a (1), (4) CRR

EU OVA c), EU LIQA a), h)

Liquidity and Funding Risk Management main target is to maintain a solid balance sheet structure which allows a sustainable

business model.

Liquidity and Funding Risk Management aims, in the short term, to prevent an entity from having difficulties in meeting its

payment commitments in due time and form or that, to meet them, it has to resort to obtaining funds in burdensome conditions

that deteriorate the image or reputation of the entity.

In the medium term, its objective is to ensure the suitability of the Group's financial structure and its evolution, within the

framework of the economic situation, the markets and regulatory changes.

The Group’s liquidity and funding strategy is based on the following pillars:

–The principle of the funding self-sufficiency of its subsidiaries, meaning that each of the LMU must cover its funding needs

independently on the markets where it operates. This avoids possible contagion due to a crisis affecting one or more of

the Group’s LMU.

–Stable customer deposits as the main source of funding in all the LMU, in accordance with the Group’s business model.

–Diversification of the sources of wholesale funding, in terms of maturity, market, instruments, counterparties and

currencies, with recurring access to the markets.

–Compliance with regulatory requirements, ensuring the availability of ample liquidity buffers, of high quality, as well as

sufficient instruments as required by regulations with the capacity to absorb losses.

–Compliance with the internal Liquidity Risk and Funding metrics, while adhering to the Risk Appetite level established for

each LMU at any time.

This management of structural and liquidity funding is based on the principle of financial self-sufficiency of the entities that

comprise it. This approach helps prevent and limit liquidity risk by reducing the Group’s vulnerability during periods of high risk.

This decentralized management prevents possible contagion from a crisis affecting only one or a few Group entities, which must

act independently to meet their liquidity requirements in the markets where they operate.

Within this strategy, the BBVA Group is organized into eight LMU composed of the parent company and the bank subsidiaries in

each geographical area, plus the branches that depend on them.

| p.237 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

In addition, the policy for managing liquidity and funding risk is also based on the model’s robustness and on the planning and

integration of risk management into the budgeting process of each LMU, according to the liquidity and funding risk appetite that it

decides to assume in its business.

Liquidity and funding planning is part of the strategic processes for the Group’s budgetary and business planning. This objective is

to allow a recurrent growth of the banking business with suitable maturities and costs within the established risk tolerance levels

by using a wide range of instruments which allow the diversification of the funding sources and the maintenance of a high volume

of available liquid assets.

A statement of the level of appropriateness of the liquidity risk management mechanisms for 2025 is included as part of the

Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP) approved by the Board of Directors in February 2026:

“As a result of the self-assessment exercise carried out, the Board of Directors concludes that the liquidity and funding

management model is robust, with a medium-low liquidity and funding risk profile, supported by the current Risk Appetite

Framework and liquidity and funding planning.

In addition, this liquidity and funding management model considers the necessary liquid resources and the capacity to activate and

generate additional measures to preserve this profile over the planning horizon, as well as to deal with unexpected stress

situations.

The assessment concludes that BBVA Group entities maintain a robust financing structure and effective governance that allows

liquidity and financing planning and management to be adapted to adverse scenarios.

All the processes described are subject to the BBVA Group's internal control model, based on an organisational structure of three

lines of defence and using robust corporate methodologies and tools. The risks identified in these processes are sufficiently

mitigated by controls that have been tested during this financial year and have functioned correctly.”

4.5.2.Governance and monitoring and mitigation measures

Articles 435 (1) b), c), d), 451a (1), (4) CRR

EU OVA b), d), e), f), g), EU LIQA b), c), d), e), f), g), EU LIQB d)

The responsibility for liquidity and funding management in the development of normal business activity lies with the Finance area

as a first line of defense in managing the risks inherent to this activity, in accordance with the principles established by the EBA and

in line with the most demanding standards, policies, procedures and controls in the framework established by the governing

bodies. Finance, through the Balance-Sheet Management area, plans and executes the funding of the structural long-term gap of

each LMU and proposes to the ALCO the actions to be taken on this matter, in accordance with the policies established by the Risk

Committee in line with the metrics of the Risk Appetite Framework approved by the Board of Directors.

Finance is also responsible for preparing the regulatory reporting of liquidity, coordinating with the responsible areas in each LMU

the necessary processes to cover the requirements at corporate and regulatory level, ensuring the integrity of the information

provided.

GRM is responsible for ensuring that the liquidity and financing risk in the Group is managed in accordance with the framework

established by governing bodies. It also deals with the identification, measurement, monitoring and control of such risks and their

communication to the relevant corporate bodies. In order to carry out this task properly, the Risk function in the Group has been

configured as a single, global function, independent of the management areas.

Additionally, the Group has, in its second line of defense, an Internal Risk Control unit, which performs an independent review of

the control of Liquidity and Funding Risk, and a Financial Internal Control Unit that reviews the design and effectiveness of the

controls operations on liquidity management and reporting.

| p.238 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

As the third line of defense of the Group's internal control model, Internal Audit is in charge of reviewing specific controls and

processes in accordance with a work plan that is drawn up annually.

The Group’s fundamental objectives regarding the liquidity and funding risk are determined through the Liquidity Coverage Ratio

(LCR) and through the Loan-to-Stable Customer Deposits (LtSCD) ratio.

The LCR ratio is a regulatory metric that aims to guarantee the resilience of entities in a scenario of liquidity tension within a time

horizon of 30 days. Within its Risk Appetite Framework and system of limits and alerts, BBVA has established a required LCR

compliance level for the entire Group and for each individual LMU. The internal levels required are aimed at efficiently meeting the

regulatory requirement, at a level above 100% as a mitigation measure.

The LtSCD ratio measures the relationship between net lending and stable customer funds. The aim is to preserve a stable funding

structure in the medium term for each of the LMU which make up the BBVA Group, taking into account that maintaining an

adequate volume of stable customer funds is key to achieving a sound liquidity profile. In geographical areas with dual-currency

balances, the indicator is also controlled by currency to manage the mismatches that might occur.

Stable customer funds are considered to be the financing obtained and managed from the LMU among their target customers.

Those funds are characterized by their low sensitivity to market changes and by their less volatile behavior at aggregated level per

operation due to the loyalty of the customer to the entity. The stable resources are calculated by applying to each identified

customer segment a haircut determined by the analysis of the stability if the balances by which different aspects are evaluated

(concentration, stability, level of loyalty). The main source of stable resources arises from wholesale funding and retail customer

funds.

In order to establish the target (maximum) levels of LtSCD in each LMU and provide an optimal funding structure reference in

terms of risk appetite, the corporate Structural Risks unit of GRM identifies and assesses the economic and financial variables that

condition the funding structures in the different geographical areas.

Additionally, liquidity and funding risk management aims to achieve a proper diversification of the funding structure, avoiding

excessive dependence on short-term funding by establishing a maximum level for the short-term funds raised, including both

wholesale financing and the least stable proportion of customer funds In relation to long-term financing, the maturity profile does

not present significant concentrations, which makes it possible to adapt the schedule of the planned issuance plan to the best

financial conditions in the markets. Lastly, concentration risk is monitored at LMU level, with the aim of ensuring a correct

diversification of both the counterparty and type of instrument.

One of the fundamental metrics within the general management framework of the liquidity and funding risk is the maintenance of a

liquidity buffer consisting of high quality assets free of charges which can be sold or offered as collateral to obtain funding, either

under normal market conditions or in stress situations.

The Finance area is responsible for the collateral management and determining the liquidity buffer within the BBVA Group.

According to the principle of auto-sufficiency of the Group's subsidiaries, each LMU is responsible for maintaining a buffer of liquid

assets which complies with the regulatory requirements applicable under each jurisdiction. In addition, the liquidity buffer of each

LMU must be aligned with the liquidity and funding risk tolerance as well as the management limits set and approved for each

case.

In this context, the short-term resistance of the liquidity risk profile is promoted, to ensure that each LMU has sufficient collateral

to deal with the risk of the closing of wholesale markets. Basic capacity is the internal metric for the management and control of

short-term liquidity risk, which is defined as the relationship between the explicit assets available and the maturities of wholesale

liabilities and volatile resources, at different time periods up to one year, with special relevance at 30 and 90 days, with the

objective of preserving the survival period above 3 months with the available buffer, without considering the balance inflows.

| p.239 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

As a fundamental element of the liquidity and financing risk monitoring scheme, stress tests are carried out. They enable to

anticipate deviations from the liquidity targets and the limits set in the appetite, and to establish tolerance ranges in the different

management areas. They also play a major role in the design of the Liquidity Contingency Plan and the definition of specific

measures to be adopted to rectify the risk profile if necessary.

For each scenario, it is checked whether BBVA has a sufficient stock of liquid assets to guarantee its capacity to meet the liquidity

commitments/outflows in the different periods analyzed. The analysis considers four scenarios: one central and three crisis-

related (systemic crisis; unexpected internal crisis with a considerable rating downgrade and/or affecting the ability to issue in

wholesale markets and the perception of business risk by the banking intermediaries and the entity’s clients; and a mixed scenario,

as a combination of the two aforementioned scenarios). Each scenario considers the following factors: existing market liquidity,

customer behavior and sources of funding, the impact of rating downgrades, market values of liquid assets and collateral, and the

interaction between liquidity requirements and the development of BBVA's credit quality.

The stress tests conducted on a regular basis by GRM reveal that BBVA maintains a sufficient buffer of liquid assets to deal with

the estimated liquidity outflows in a scenario resulting from the combination of a systemic crisis and an unexpected internal crisis,

including in the scenario of a significant downgrade of the Bank’s rating by up to three notches.

Together with the results of the stress tests and the risk metrics, the early warning indicators play an important role within the

corporate model and the Liquidity Contingency Plan.

Finance is the area responsible for the elaboration, monitoring, execution and update of the liquidity and funding plan and of the

market access strategy to guarantee and improve the stability and diversification of the wholesale funding sources.

In order to implement and establish management in an anticipated manner, limits are set on an annual basis for the main

management metrics that form part of the budgeting process for the liquidity and funding plan. This framework of limits

contributes to the planning of the joint future performance of:

–The loan book, considering the types of assets and their degree of liquidity, as well as their validity as collateral in

collateralized funding.

–Stable customer funds, based on the application of a methodology for establishing which segments and customer

balances are considered to be stable or volatile funds based on the principle of sustainability and recurrence of these

funds.

–Projection of the credit gap, in order to require a degree of self-funding that is defined in terms of the difference between

the loan-book and stable customer funds.

–Incorporating the planning of securities portfolios into the banking book, which include both fixed-interest and equity

securities, and are classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and at amortised cost,

and additionally on trading portfolios.

–The structural gap projection, as a result of assessing the funding needs generated both from the credit gap and by the

securities portfolio in the banking book, together with the rest of on-balance-sheet wholesale funding needs, excluding

trading portfolios. This gap therefore needs to be funded with customer funds that are not considered stable or on

wholesale markets.

As a result of these funding needs, the BBVA Group plans the target wholesale funding structure according to the tolerance set in

each LMU target.

Thus, once the structural gap has been identified and after resorting to wholesale markets, the amount and composition of

wholesale structural funding is established in subsequent years, in order to maintain a diversified funding mix and guarantee that

there is not a high reliance on short-term funding (short-term wholesale funding plus volatile customer funds).

| p.240 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

In practice, the execution of the principles of planning and self-funding at the different LMU results in the Group’s main source of

funding being customer deposits, which consist mainly of demand deposits, savings deposits and time deposits.

As sources of funding, customer deposits are complemented by access to the interbank market and the domestic and

international capital markets in order to address additional liquidity requirements, implementing domestic and international

programs for the issuance of commercial paper and medium and long-term debt.

The process of analysis and assessment of the liquidity and funding situation and of the inherent risks is a process carried out on

an ongoing basis in the BBVA Group, with the participation of all the Group areas involved in liquidity and funding risk

management. This process is carried out at both local and corporate level. It is incorporated into the decision- making process for

liquidity and funding management, with integration between the risk appetite strategy and establishment and the planning

process, the funding plan and the limits scheme.

4.5.3.Liquidity and funding performance

Article 451a (1), (4) CRR

EU LIQA a), EU LIQB d)

The BBVA Group maintains a dynamic funding structure with a predominantly retail nature, where customer resources represent

the main source of funding.

During 2025 liquidity conditions have remained sound in all countries where the Group operates.

The performance of the indicators show that the funding structure remained steady during 2025 and 2024, in the sense that all

LMU held self-funding levels with stable customer resources above the requirements.

shape-49a746576b3d56fa.gif

With respect to LCR, the Group has maintained a liquidity buffer at both a consolidated and individual level in 2025. As a result, the

ratio has remained comfortably above 100%, with the consolidated ratio as of December 31, 2025 standing at 143%.

Although this requirement is only established at a Group level, for banks in the Eurozone, the minimum level required comfortably

exceeded in all subsidiaries.

It should be noted that the calculation of the Consolidated LCR does not allow the transfer of liquidity between, or with,

subsidiaries located outside the Eurozone, so no excess liquidity may be transferred from these entities for the purpose of

calculating the consolidated ratio.

If the impact of these highly liquid assets was considered, the LCR would be 169%, or 26 basis points above the Group LCR and 69

basis points above the requirement.

One of the key elements in BBVA's Group liquidity and funding management is the targeted maintenance of large high quality

liquidity buffers in all business areas where the group operates.

Each entity maintains a liquidity buffer at the individual level for BBVA, S.A. and for each of its subsidiaries, such as BBVA Mexico,

Garanti BBVA and the Latin American subsidiaries.

In this respect, the Group has maintained for the last 12 months an average volume of high quality liquid assets (HQLA) amounting

to €134,046 million, of which 98% correspond to maximum quality assets (LCR level 1).

The Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), defined as the result between the amount of stable funding available and the amount of

stable funding required, requiring banks to maintain a stable financing profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-

balance sheet activities. This ratio should be at least 100% at all times. The NSFR ratio of the BBVA Group, stood at 126% as of

December 31, 2025.

The NSFR of BBVA Group and its main LMU as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, was the following:

With regard to the financing structure, the loan portfolio is mostly financed by retail deposits. The “demand” maturity bucket

mainly contains the retail customer sight accounts whose behavior historically showed a high level of stability and little

concentration. According to a behavior analysis which is done every year in every entity, this type of account is considered to be

stable and for liquidity risk purposes receives a better treatment.

The most relevant aspects related to the main geographical areas are the following:

–BBVA, S.A. maintained a strong position with a large high-quality liquidity buffer, maintaining at all times the regulatory

liquidity metrics well above the set minimums. During 2025, commercial activity showed dynamism in attracting

customer deposits, mainly from wholesale clients, supported equally by retail clients and the new digital bank in Germany.

Regarding lending activity, there was a significant boost from wholesale business units. Growth in both areas has resulted

in a narrowing of the credit gap.

–BBVA Mexico showed a solid liquidity situation, with a credit gap that improved over the year, mainly due to strong

deposit growth in local currency. In addition, the liquidity situation was reinforced by wholesale debt issuances carried out

in both Mexican pesos and U.S. dollars.

–In Turkey, Garanti BBVA maintained an adequate liquidity situation in 2025. The lending gap decreased significantly in

foreign currencies due to a strong rise in deposits. On the other hand, there was an increase in the credit gap in Turkish

lira due to the strong growth in lending, which exceeded that of deposits. Wholesale issuances in foreign currency

supported liquidity.

–In South America, the liquidity situation has also remained adequate throughout the region in 2025. In BBVA Argentina, at

a constant exchange rate, the credit gap improved in Argentine pesos due to the impulse in time deposits despite strong

loan growth. In the U.S. dollar balance sheet, at a constant exchange rate, the growth of loans exceeded fund gathering,

thus widening the credit gap in this currency. In BBVA Colombia, the liquidity situation was comfortable, even though the

credit gap widened in 2025, with a sustained growth of loans that slightly exceeded the volume of fund gathering. At

BBVA Peru, the liquidity situation remained solid, with a credit gap that  widened during the year due to the dynamism of

lending activity, especially in U.S. dollars.

The main wholesale financing transactions carried out by the BBVA Group during 2025 are listed below:

In 2025, through successive placements of debt securities, BBVA Argentina issued a total of 244 billion Argentine pesos and USD

192 million. The euro equivalent of these issues was €306 million.

In April 2025, BBVA Colombia issued a subordinated biodiversity bond, subscribed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC),

for an amount of USD 45 million.

In Peru, BBVA issued USD 200 million in the form of a gender social bond aimed at women entrepreneurs, executed in two

tranches during the first and the third quarters of 2025, in partnership with IDB Invest, FMO (Dutch Entrepreneurial Development

Bank) and COFIDE (Corporación Financiera de Desarrollo, S.A.).

Going into 2026, one of the main objectives of the Group's funding strategy is maintaining the strength of the financing structure

based on the growth of stable customer resources; diversifying the different sources of financing and ensuring the availability of

sufficient levels of liquid assets; and optimizing the generation of collateral, for compliance with regulatory ratios, and other

internal metrics to monitor liquidity and funding risk, including stress scenarios.

Risk | | --- | --- |

Since liquidity transferability between subsidiaries is not assumed, BBVA Group's consolidated ratio is primarily determined by

BBVA, S.A.'s ratio and the volume of outflows from entities abroad. The evolution of the consolidated ratio is closely linked to the

performance of BBVA, S.A.'s LCR. Throughout the series shown in the table, the LCR has remained at high levels, reflecting the

Group’s strong and ample liquidity position..

As regards the numerator of the ratio, one of the key elements in the BBVA Group's management of liquidity and funding is the

maintenance of large high-quality liquidity buffers in all geographic areas. In the last 12 months, the Group maintained an average

volume of high quality liquid assets (HQLA) of €12.7 billion (€134.0 billion considering the excess liquidity of all the banks abroad),

of which 98% corresponded to top quality assets (level 1).

As regards the composition of the denominator of the LCR, the main source of funding for all the Group's banks is retail deposits,

liabilities of a stable nature which therefore produce fewer potential outflows in the LCR ratio. The Group also has sources of

wholesale funding that are adequately diversified in terms of maturity, instrument, market, currency and counterparty, oriented

toward the long term, which are considered less stable for the purposes of the LCR, generating greater potential outflows.

Regarding the sustainability of wholesale funding as a source of funding, this depends on the degree of diversification. In particular,

in order to ensure adequate diversification by counterparties, specific concentration thresholds are set and must be met at all

times by each LMU. As of December 31, 2025, except for the positions against central clearing houses and the secured funding

operations with several Central Banks, the Group has no counterparties that maintain balances greater than 1.2% of the Group's

total liabilities and the weight of the first 10 counterparties per balance represents 5.6%.

The establishment of an independent control framework for the Euro, USA, Mexico and Turkey LMUs, allows compliance with the

Liquidity and Finance corporate requirements on the four main currencies in which the BBVA Group operates: Euro, Dollar,

Mexican Peso and Turkish Lira.

With the exception of the dollar, significant currencies at the Group level are fully managed by entities resident in the jurisdictions

of each of them, with their funding needs covered in the local markets in which they operate.

For those LMUs operating in dollarised economies (Argentina, Peru, Mexico and Turkey) there are specific regulatory

requirements that limit the level of risk of each subsidiary. In addition, the LCR in US dollars in all of them exceeds 100%.

Finally, the Group's exposure to derivatives is limited (see section on counterparty risk exposure). In addition, the LCR of the

different LMU’s includes liquidity outflows arising from the need to post additional collateral, the most relevant cases being the

deterioration of the entity's credit quality, the excess collateral to be returned to the counterparty, and the impact of an adverse

market scenario. For the quantification of additional collateral in case of adverse market scenarios, a Historical Look Back

Approach is used in accordance with the EBA RTS (Article 423(3) of the CRR).

4.5.6.Net Stable Funding Ratio

Article 451a (1), (3) a), b), c) CRR

Within its risk appetite framework, BBVA has included the NSFR indicator within the limits scheme for both the Group as a whole

and for each individual LMU, aimed at keeping this metric at a comfortable level above 100%.

A table including the main components of NSFR is shown below:

The table shows a balanced funding structure that maintains a significant volume of retail deposits as the main source of funding

for investment activity. This type of funds is characterised by a more favourable treatment for NSFR purposes, given its low

sensitivity to market fluctuations and its low volatility in aggregate balances per transaction, as a result of customer linkage. This

results in a level of NSFR that comfortably exceeds the regulatory requirement of 100%, with a stable evolution over time.

15 An asset is considered encumbered if it is subject to any form of agreement with the objective of ensuring, collateralizing or improving the credit quality of a

transaction, and it cannot be freely removed. In any case, the consideration of a committed asset is not based on an explicit legal definition, such as the transfer of a

title, but on an economic criterion, so any asset that is subject to any restriction to be used or to replace another asset, is considered pledged.

4.5.7.Encumbered assets in funding operations

Article 443 CRR

EU AE4

In relation to the management of encumbered liquid assets15, all LMUs maintain adequate positions not only to cover the minimum

survival periods in a stress situation, but also uncollateralised wholesale liabilities, which are ultimately the most affected by the

ratio of encumbered assets.

All of the Group's LMUs have implemented procedures and controls to ensure that the risk associated with the management of

guarantees and asset assessment are properly identified, controlled and managed in compliance with the Corporate Liquidity and

Financing Risk Policy, highlighting: i) monitoring and control scheme for encumbered assets risk indicators, ii) periodic evaluation

of stress scenarios as a result of the risk levels achieved, and iii) a contingency plan with action measures based on the degree of

criticality and immediacy of the situation.

The impact on the business model of the level of the asset pledging, as well as the importance in the Group's funding model is low

because the funding is based on stable customer deposits, the dependence on short term funding is reduced, and a robust funding

structure is maintained, with a moderate level of encumbered assets.

The ratio of encumbered assets to total assets for the main LMUs as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is:

shape-41dbda9ac9b2b4e.gif

| TABLE 75. ENCUMBERED ASSETS OVER TOTAL ASSETS RATIO | | --- || | 2025 | 2024 | | --- | --- | --- | | BBVA Group | 13% | 14% | | BBVA, S.A. | 16% | 15% | | BBVA Mexico | 11% | 16% | | Garanti BBVA | 4% | 5% |

The Group mainly has the following sources of encumbrance:

Assets sold under repurchase agreement

Collateralized financing transactions through repurchase agreements are among the short-term sources of funding. These

transactions play an important role in the Group's encumbered assets, with debt securities being the main asset used.

Assets pledged with Central Banks

The role of central banks as ultimate liquidity providers is one of the key contingent funding resources in the event of stress in the

financial markets. In this regard, and in accordance with the principles established for collateral management, the Group's strategy

is to maintain extensive credit facilities with the respective central banks by pledging assets as collateral in those geographical

areas where these instruments exist as part of monetary policy.

Additionally, a relevant element has been, in the case of the ECB, the non-standard monetary policy measures related to the

“Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations” (TLTRO) to provide long-term financing with the aim of easing credit conditions

for the private sector and stimulating financing for the real economy. As of December 31, 2025, BBVA, S.A. has no balance drawn

down in any TLTRO operation.

| p.251 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Management of collateral agreements

The use of collateral is one of the most effective techniques to mitigate credit risk exposure arising from derivatives, repo

transactions or securities lending. The assets currently used as collateral are: cash and debt securities.

Securitisation

The issuance of securitisation represents one of the main potential sources of risk of assets pledged on the balance sheet.

Depending on the type of assets backing the securitisation, the following classes are issued: residential mortgage-backed

securities (RMBS), consumer loans and loans to SMEs. The impact of this pledging source is very low for the Group.

Covered bonds

The issuance of covered bonds is one of the main sources of secured funding with a high degree of protection for bondholders. The

issuances are backed by on-balance sheet assets that can be pooled and have a joint guarantee by the entity that will back the

issuance in the event that the underlying assets are unable to meet payments. The products through which this type of funding is

implemented are mortgage covered bonds, public covered bonds and internationalisation covered bonds.

Mortgage covered bonds are issued with first-rank mortgage loan collateral constituted in favour of the bank. These represent the

majority of the Group's covered bond issuances. Public covered bonds are backed by loans and credits granted by the issuer to the

State, to central and regional governments, local authorities and autonomous bodies dependent on them, as well as other

analogous entities of the European Economic Area. Finally, internationalization bonds are issued to guarantee credits and loans

linked to the funding of contracts for the export of goods and services or for the internationalization of companies.

Regarding the specific overcollateralization applied to these issuances:

Royal Decree-Law 24/2021 transposing Directive (EU) 2019/2162 on covered bonds with effect from July 8, 2022 establishes that

mortgage, public and internationalization covered bonds must have the minimum level of legal over-collateralization foreseen in

the first paragraph of Article 129.3a of Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 of June 26, 2013 (CRR), which is established at 5% over the

nominal value.

This regulation establishes that the cover pool must include at all times an additional liquidity buffer consisting of high quality

liquid assets available to cover the maximum accumulated net liquidity outflow in the 180 days following the covered bond

program. As of December 31, 2025, this liquidity buffer is formed by level 1 debt securities.

Within the Group there are units responsible for the execution, monitoring and control of this type of issuances, as well as the

calculation of the additional capacity issuances, with the aim of ensuring that the entity is not over-issued and that it complies with

the established limits of the Asset Encumbrance Ratio.

The following table shows assets pledge as collateral (loans) underlying the issuance of covered bonds, as well as the total issued

and excess capacity to issue as of December 31, 2025:

4.6.Operational Risk

image26.jpg

BBVA defines operational risk (“OR”) as any risk that could result in losses caused by human error; inadequate or flawed internal

processes; undue conduct with respect to customers, markets or the institution; weaknesses in the anti-money laundering and

financing of terrorist programs; failures, interruptions or flaws in systems or communications; theft, loss or wrong use of

information, as well as deterioration of its quality, internal or external fraud, including in any case those derived from cyberattacks;

theft or harm to assets or persons; legal risks; risks derived from staff management and labor health; and defective service

provided by suppliers; as well as damages from extreme climate events, pandemics and other natural disasters.

4.6.1.Operational risk management

Operational risk management aims to guarantee the quality, security, and availability of the service provided; ensure that the

Group's activities are carried out in an honest and transparent manner and in compliance with applicable regulations; and

minimize legal or regulatory penalties and the economic and reputational losses arising from such penalties, as well as their impact

on the recurring generation of results. To this end, it identifies the root causes of operational risk in order to prevent its occurrence

and mitigate its possible consequences by establishing control and monitoring frameworks and developing mitigation plans.

Operational risk management is integrated into the global risk management structure of the BBVA Group.

4.6.1.1.Operational risk management principles

Articles 435 (1) a), 446 (1) CRR

EU ORA a)

The BBVA Group is committed to preferably applying advanced operational risk management models, regardless of the capital

calculation regulatory model applicable at the time. Operational risk management at the BBVA Group shall:

–Be aligned with the Risk Appetite Framework ratified by the BBVA Board of Directors, aiming to safeguard the solvency of

the entity.

–Address BBVA's management needs in terms of compliance with legislation, regulations and industry standards, as well

as the decisions or positioning of BBVA's corporate bodies.

–Anticipate the potential operational risk to which the Group may be exposed as a result of the creation or modification of

products, activities, processes or systems, as well as decisions regarding the outsourcing or hiring of services, and

establish mechanisms to assess and mitigate risk to a reasonable extent prior to implementation, as well as review the

same on a regular basis.

–Regularly assess the significant operational risk to which the Group is exposed, in order to adopt appropriate mitigation

measures in each case, once the identified risk and the cost of mitigation (cost/benefit analysis) have been considered.

–Promote the implementation of mechanisms that support careful monitoring of all sources of operational risk and the

effectiveness of mitigation and control environments, fostering proactive risk management.

| p.256 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Identify the relevant operational events already suffered, looking for their root causes and establishing measures to

prevent the same, provided that the cost/benefit analysis so recommends.

–Evaluate key public events that have generated operational risk losses at other companies and support, where

appropriate, the implementation of measures as required to prevent them from occurring at the Group.

–Stablish mechanisms to measure and monitor economic capital requirements, including stress scenarios to complement

operational events already suffered.

–Have an effective system of governance in place, where the functions and responsibilities of the corporate areas and

bodies involved in operational risk management are clearly defined.

–Operational risk management must be performed in coordination with management of other risk, taking into

consideration credit or market events that may have an operational origin.

4.6.1.2.Operational risk management model

Article 435 (1) a), c), d), 446 (1) a) CRR

EU ORA a), c), d), e)

The operational risk management cycle at BBVA is equivalent to the one implemented for the rest of risks. Its elements are:

image33.jpg

Operational risk management parameters

Operational risk forms part of the risk appetite framework of the Group and includes at least three types of metrics and limits:

–Economic capital: calculated with the operational losses database of the Group, considering the corresponding intra-

geographical diversification effects and the additional estimation of potential and emerging risks through the inclusion of

stress scenarios. The economic capital is regularly calculated for the main banks of the Group, using simulation

capabilities to forecast the impact of changes on the risk profile or potential new events. This figure represents the

amount of own funds that, according to internal methodologies, the Group believes it needs to cover unexpected losses

over a one-year time horizon.

–ORI metrics (Operational Risk Indicator) is calculated as the ratio between direct operational losses incurred and gross

margin generated. Throughout 2025, the SIRO 2.0 tool has been implemented, which maintains the main components of

the operational risk loss database to be used in internal and regulatory reports and in the calculation of economic capital,

broken down by geography, entity, and/or business area.

| p.257 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Indicators on sources of risk: The operational risk appetite is complemented by a series of indicators designed to

objectively measure the Group's exposure to different sources of operational risk, its evolution, and the effectiveness of

its control model, thus enabling proactive risk management before it materializes. The indicators are reviewed and

adjusted periodically in order to capture the main risks prevailing at any given time.

Operational risk admission

The main purposes of the operational risk admission phase are the following:

–To anticipate potential operational risk to which the Group may be exposed due to the release of new, or modification of

businesses, products, activities, processes or systems or in relations with third parties (e.g. in the outsourcing of bank

processes to third parties).

–To ensure that implementation and the roll out of initiatives is only performed once appropriate mitigation measures have

been taken in each case, including external assurance of risks where deemed appropriate.

The framework for the admission of Operational and Reputational Risk takes shape in different Operational Risk Admission and

Product Governance Committees, both at a corporate and Business Area level, that follow a delegation structure based on the risk

level of proposed initiatives.

image12.jpg

The admission process covers any initiative (new business, product, outsourcing, contracting third-party services, process

transformation, new systems, etc.), is proportionate to the level of risk involved in the initiatives, and includes monitoring them

after their admission.

Operational risk monitoring

The Group promotes continuous monitoring by the Areas of the proper functioning and effectiveness of their control environment,

taking into account, among other elements, the evolution of the management indicators defined for the Area, the events and

losses experienced (by the Group or by the Industry), scenarios, and the results of the activities of the second line of defense,

internal audit, supervisors, or external auditors.

The objective in this phase is to ensure that the Group's operational risk profile remains within authorized limits.

The main components of this phase of the operational risk management life cycle are described below:

Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA)

| p.258 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Proper operational risk management requires the establishment of methodologies and procedures to identify, assess, prioritize,

and monitor this type of risk in order to implement the appropriate mitigation and control measures in each case.

The purpose of the Group's operational risk self-assessment is to generate and maintain an up-to-date map of the relevant

operational risks in each area and to assess the adequacy of the environment for monitoring and mitigating these risks, in order to

identify risks that exceed the established tolerance level and promote their mitigation.

Monitoring of management parameters

The monitoring of management parameters allows the Group to identify sources of risk that behave abnormally, exceeding the

established appetite levels, as well as relevant sources of risk not previously identified or underestimated; in these situations, the

Group activates mechanisms to identify the root causes of these situations and to reinforce the mitigation environment, thus

contributing to the Group's RCSA process.

The RCSA, together with the operational risk admission process and the management derived from the monitoring of forward-

looking parameters, make up the main structure of the Group's operational risk proactive management processes.

Operational loss collection

In addition, and in line with the best practices and recommendations provided by the Bank for International Settlements

(hereinafter, BIS), BBVA has procedures to collect the operational losses occurred both in the different entities of the Group and in

other financial groups, with the appropriate level of detail to carry out an effective analysis that provides useful information for

management purposes, preparation of regulatory or internal reports, calculation of economic capital and to contrast the

consistency of the Group's operational risks map.

The monitoring activities result in a risk assessment of the Group and its main geographical areas, which allows the Group to focus

its management and mitigation efforts.

Operational risk mitigation

The Group promotes proactive and continuous risk mitigation through the establishment and improvement of the mitigation and

control environment, taking into account proportionality criteria.

For risks that exceed the defined tolerance threshold, it will be necessary to either establish additional mitigation measures or

accept the control weakness in accordance with the procedure defined for this purpose.

The Group considers the option of transferring risks to third parties as a tool for managing operational risks when internal

mitigation levels do not reach the desired target risk levels. The use of risk transfer mechanisms should not lead to a relaxation of

internal mitigation measures, which must be maintained on a complementary basis.

Reporting

Proper decision-making requires systematic, timely, and high-quality reporting on the Group's risk situation and on the Model itself

to the areas responsible for its management and supervision. To this end, each of the roles involved in risk management has

specific reporting obligations in accordance with the Group's risk governance model.

4.6.1.3.Operational risk governance

Article 435 (1) b), 446 (1) (a) CRR

EU ORA b)

BBVA Group's operational risk governance model is based on two components:

| p.259 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

–Three-line defense control model, in line with industry best practices, and which guarantees compliance with the most

advanced operational risk internal control standards.

–Scheme of Corporate Assurance Committees and Internal Control and Operational Risk Committees in the different

business and support areas.

Three lines of defense control model

1.- First line of defense: composed of the Business and Support Areas in charge of managing operational risks in their products,

activities, processes and systems, including those present in activities that depend on third parties.

The Areas integrate operational risk management into their day-to-day activities, identifying and evaluating operational risks,

carrying out controls and implementing mitigation plans for those risks with a residual level higher than acceptable.

2.- Second line of defense: composed of:

i.the Non-Financial Risk Units, holding an locals.

ii.the Specialized Control Units, in the areas of compliance, risk, finance, processes, technological security, physical

security, information and data security, legal, people, and third parties.

Risk Control Specialists work across their geographical areas, performing their duties in those areas where operational risks in

their field of expertise may arise.

The Non-Financial Risk Units and the Specialist Units report to the Regulation and Internal Control area in order to ensure a

coordinated action of the second line of defense and to preserve their independence with respect to the first line of defense.

3.- Third line of defense: performed by BBVA Internal Audit, which:

–Performs an independent review of the control model, verifying compliance with and effectiveness of established general

policies.

–Provides independent information on the control environment to the Corporate Assurance Committees.

Corporate Assurance Committee Scheme

Corporate Assurance establishes a structure of committees, both at local and corporate level, to provide senior management with

a comprehensive and homogeneous vision of the main non-financial risks and significant situations of the control environment.

| p.260 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

image22.jpg

(1) CA: Corporate Assurance

Each geographical area has a Corporate Assurance Committee chaired by the Country Manager and whose main functions are:

–Facilitate agile and anticipatory decision-making for the mitigation or assumption of the main risks.

–Monitoring the changes in the non-financial risks and their alignment with the defined strategies and policies and the risk

appetite.

–Analyzing and assessing controls and measures established to mitigate the impact of the risks identified, should they

materialize.

–Making decisions about the proposals for risk taking that are conveyed by the working groups or that arise in the

Committee itself.

–Promoting transparency by promoting the proactive participation of the three lines of defense in discharging their

responsibilities and the rest of the organization in this area.

At the holding level there is a Global Corporate Assurance Committee, chaired by the Group's Chief Executive Officer. Its main

functions are similar to those already described but applicable to the most important issues that are escalated from the

geographies and the holding company areas.

The business and support areas have an Internal Control and Operational Risk Committee, whose purpose is to ensure the due

implementation of the operational risk management model within its scope of action and drive active management of such risk,

taking mitigation decisions when control weaknesses are identified and monitoring the same.

Additionally, the Non-Financial Risk unit periodically reports the status of the management of non-financial risks in the Group to

the Board's Risk and Compliance Committee.

4.6.2.Methods used for calculating capital

Article 446 (1) b), c), d) CRR

Under CRR3, aligned with the finalized Basel III framework, the regulatory treatment of operational risk under Pillar 1 has been

consolidated into a single, fully standardized approach. This replaces the previous range of methodologies (including the

Advanced Measurement Approach) thereby enhancing cross-bank comparability and simplicity.

The resulting framework is the Standardised Measurement Approach (SMA), in which the capital requirement is primarily

determined by a Business Indicator (BI). The BI is a financial-statement-based measure intended to proxy the scale and income

profile of the institution. This is then translated into a Business Indicator Component (BIC) through prescribed coefficients. In

accordance with the regulation, the own funds requirements under the SMA are equivalent to the BIC.

Components of the Business Indicator

The BI is calculated as the sum of three distinct components, as defined under CRR3 and its accompanying technical standards:

•Interest, Leases and Dividends Component (ILDC): Encompasses interest income and expenses, including those

attributable to leasing activities (subject to a cap of 2.25% of interest-bearing assets), plus dividend income.

•Services Component (SC): Captures fee and commission income and expenses, as well as other operating income and

expenses.

•Financial Component (FC): Reflects net gains and losses linked to financial operations, covering relevant elements from

both the trading and banking books in line with the applicable accounting or regulatory scope.

The BI is determined based on a three-year average of its underlying components. This average serves as the basis for calculating

the BIC.

Calculation of the BIC

The BIC is calculated by applying progressive marginal coefficients to the BI. Consequently, the effective capital charge increases

in proportion to the scale of the BI, as detailed below:

•Bucket 1: For a BI up to €1 billion, a coefficient of 12% is applied.

•Bucket 2: For the portion of the BI between €1 billion and €30 billion, a coefficient of 15% is applied.

•Bucket 3: For the portion of the BI exceeding €30 billion, a coefficient of 18% is applied.

Annex X shows the values for each component and subcomponent over the last three financial years, adjustments for mergers,

acquisitions or divestments, and the three-year average used to calculate the BIC.

The following table presents the amount of the BI, incorporating the impact of M&A and exclusions due to divested activities.

| TABLE 81. BUSINESS INDICATOR (EU OR2) (MILLION EUROS. 12-31-2025) | | --- || Business Indicator (BI) | 21,558 | | --- | --- | | BI gross of excluded divested activities | 21,558 | | Reduction in BI due to excluded divested activities | — | | Impact in BI of mergers/acquisitions | — |

During the year, there have been no merges or acquisitions that affect the calculation of the Business Indicator, with no reduction

due to excluded activities.

| p.262 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

Transitional Arrangements

By way of a transitional arrangement, CRR3 allows EU parent institutions (which are previously authorized to apply the Alternative

Standardised Approach (ASA) for retail and commercial banking business lines) to continue doing so latest until December 31,

  1. This is subject to having informed the consolidating supervisor and remains restricted to the scope of the existing

permission as per the CRR version applicable on July 8, 2024.

In accordance with these transitional provisions, the BBVA continues to apply the ASA for the operational risk own funds

requirements attributable to the retail and commercial business lines of its subsidiaries in Mexico and Peru.

Under this approach, the own funds requirements is determined by applying a fixed coefficient of 12% for the retail banking

business line and 15% for the commercial banking business line to a proxy of the relevant indicator. This proxy is calculated as

3.5% of the three-year average of the total amount of loans and advances, as prescribed in the version of the CRR applicable prior

to the implementation of the CRR3 framework.

The own funds requirements for the retail and commercial business lines in Mexico and Peru are determined independently under

the ASA framework; consequently, their respective BI components are deducted from the BBVA's consolidated BI used for the

SMA capital charge.

Total Own Funds Requirements

The BBVA's total own funds requirements for operational risk are therefore calculated as the aggregate of the requirements

derived from the Standardised Measurement Approach and those under the Alternative Standardised Approach for the entities

within the scope of the transitional arrangement.

The following table EU OR3 shows the total amount of capital requirements for operational risk and the corresponding risk-

weighted exposures. It also shows the BIC resulting from the BI, as well as, where applicable, the additional requirements

associated with the ASA applicable to certain subsidiaries until the end of 2027.

EU OR3 - OPERATIONAL RISK OWN FUNDS REQUIREMENTS AND RISK EXPOSURE AMOUNTS (MILLION<br><br>EUROS. 12-31-2025) | | --- || Business Indicator Component (BIC) | 3,204 | | --- | --- | | Alternative Standardised Approach (ASA) Own Funds Requirements (OROF) under Article 314(4) | 519 | | Not applicable | | | Minimum Required Operational Risk Own Funds Requirements (OROF) | 3,723 | | Operational Risk Exposure Amounts (REA) | 46,538 |

This information provides an understanding of the magnitude of the regulatory capital required, its evolution and its contribution to

the total solvency ratio.

In 2025, capital requirements for operational risk in the BBVA Group have mainly increased by the change in methodology

envisaged in CRR3.

4.6.3.Group’s operational risk profile

Article 446 (2) CRR

BBVA’s profile of operational risk losses by risk type (Group and countries) in 2025 is as follows:

4.7.Risks on crypto-assets

4.7.1. Regulatory framework for Crypto assets

As indicated in section 2.2.2, CRR3 was published in the OJEU in June 2024. Although its date of application was scheduled for

January 1, 2025, certain articles came into force on July 9, 2024. Among them, article 451 ter, which requires the disclosure of

information on crypto-asset exposures and related activities. Within the framework of this requirement, BBVA includes the present

section as part of the Pillar 3 report.

The Group uses the definition of a crypto-asset as set out in Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 on markets in crypto-asset (hereinafter,

MiCA). According to this Regulation, a crypto-asset is a digital representation of a value or of a right that is able to be transferred

and stored electronically using distributed ledger technology or similar technology.

BBVA adheres to various regulatory frameworks for its crypto-assets offering, including MiCA in the European Union, which sets

standards for the issuance and the provision of crypto-assets services as well as a framework for crypto-asset service providers.

Also for the European Union, under the aforementioned CRR3, a transitional prudential framework for credit institutions' exposure

to crypto-assets is in place, effective from July 9, 2024, until Basel standards are formally transposed in Europe. The final drafts of

the RTS for this transitional prudential treatment were sent to the European Commission on August 5, 2025,  while the final ITS on

reporting and disclosure had been adopted earlier, at the end of 2024. BBVA applies the Swiss regulatory standards under FINMA

supervision for its custody and trading services in Switzerland, while in Turkey, compliance is aligned with Capital Market Law No.

7518, which mandates licensing for crypto-asset service providers. This Law defines crypto-assets and establishes that Virtual

Assets Service Providers (VASPs) must request a license from the Capital Markets Board (CMB).

4.7.2.Management of crypto-assets

As of December 31, 2025, BBVA Switzerland offers services that enable custody and administration, execution of orders and

transfers of crypto-assets on behalf of its customers. This subsidiary doesn’t hold any position as fees are managed and paid by its

order execution provider.

In Turkey, Garanti BBVA Kripto Varlık Alım Satım Platformu A.Ş (Garanti BBVA Kripto) operates a trading platform and provides

custody and administration and transfers of crypto-assets on behalf of its customers. To enable these services, these subsidiaries

need to handle a proprietary crypto-asset position for the following activities:

–Settlement of net traded volumes between the subsidiary liquidity providers and custody accounts to mitigate

counterparty risk and maintain segregation of our customer crypto-assets.

–Pay network fees for the aforementioned settlements and customers’ outgoing transfers, as well as to advance customer

withdrawals for unsettled funds.

Similarly, in Spain, BBVA Spain provides crypto-asset order execution services, transfer services for crypto-assets on behalf of

clients, as well as crypto-asset custody and administration services on behalf of its clients. These activities also require BBVA to

have its own position of crypto-assets in order to pay network fees for settlement transactions between liquidity providers and

BBVA's crypto-asset custody infrastructure, and for transfer services for crypto-assets on behalf of clients.

| p.266 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  4. Risk | | --- | --- |

The following table represents the amount of exposure to crypto-assets derived from these services and activities:

shape-39e049b77e94a6a.gif

| TABLE 84. EU CAE1 - EXPOSURES TO CRYPTO-ASSETS (MILLION EUROS. 12-31-2025) | | --- || | Exposure value | Risk weighted<br><br>exposures amounts<br><br>(RWEA) | Own funds<br><br>requirements | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Tokenised traditional assets | 1 | 11 | 1 | | Asset referencered tokens | — | — | — | | Exposures to other crypto assets | — | — | — | | Total | 1 | 11 | 1 | | Memorandum item | | | | | Exposures to other crypto assets expressed as a  percentage of the institution's T1 capital | — | | |

In addition, BBVA offers traditional banking services to crypto asset companies and invests in companies and funds specific to the

sector.

In line with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), BBVA classifies crypto-asset activities based on their nature.

Proprietary positions for blockchain network fee payments and client advances are categorized as inventories, valued at the lower

of cost or net realizable value. Custody activities for clients are recorded off-balance sheet, consistent with other securities

custody operations, with the risk borne by clients.

The governance of crypto-asset services, like any other business of the bank, is subject to BBVA Group's corporate governance

model. This model is structured through a set of policies and procedures that encompass general policies on customer conduct,

non-financial risk management, and third-party service management, among others.

Additionally, this framework is complemented by specific committees that supervise and monitor each of the Group's businesses,

including trading and custody of crypto assets, and ensure compliance with operational risk management frameworks and internal

controls, as described in the section on operational risk management model. Crypto-asset activities remain subject to the defined

risk appetite parameters and are included within BBVA's risk measurement and monitoring mechanisms.

The incorporation of crypto-asset services into BBVA's offerings complements and enhances its traditional business activities. By

diversifying its client base, particularly among individuals and businesses with a focus on digital innovation, the bank strengthens

customer retention while attracting new segments. This diversification is accompanied by additional fee-based revenue from

activities such as custody or trading. The integration of these services, however, adds operational complexity, requiring the

development of specialized infrastructure and robust risk management frameworks to ensure alignment with existing operations.

Additionally, BBVA’s position as a forward-looking and innovative financial institution is reinforced by its crypto-asset capabilities,

enhancing its competitiveness in a rapidly evolving market environment.

5.1.Information on the decision-making process used to establish

the remuneration policy for the Identified Staff

Article 450 (1) a) CRR

EU REMA a)

In accordance with the provisions contained in the Bylaws of BBVA ("BBVA", the "Institution" or the "Bank"), the BBVA Board of

Directors Regulations grant the Board the powers, among others, to approve the remuneration policy for directors, for submission

to the General Shareholders' Meeting, that of senior management, the rest of the Identified Staff and the Group as a whole, as well

as the determination of the remuneration of non-executive directors, and, in the case of executive directors, the approval of the

contracts that the Bank must enter into with them and the determination of their individual remuneration corresponding for the

performance of their executive functions.

Among the Committees constituted to support the Board in carrying out its functions, the Remuneration Committee is the body

which assists it in remuneration matters related to its directors, senior management and the rest of the Identified Staff, ensuring

observance of the remuneration policies established.

Thus, in accordance Article 5 of the Remuneration Committee Regulations, and without prejudice to any other functions assigned

to it by law, the Bylaws, the Board of Directors’ Regulations, or assigned to it by decision of the Board of Directors, the

Remuneration Committee primary responsibility shall be to assist the Board of Directors in matters relating to remuneration that

fall within its remit, by preparing the decisions to be taken by the Board of Directors in this area. For this purpose, it shall have the

following functions:

1.Propose the directors' remuneration policy to the Board of Directors, for submission to the General Shareholders’ Meeting,

likewise submitting the corresponding report, in the terms established by applicable regulations at any given time.

2.Propose the remuneration of non-executive directors, in accordance with the provisions of the directors' remuneration policy,

submitting the corresponding proposals to the Board.

3.Propose to the Board of Directors the contracts to be entered into by the Company with the executive directors, in

accordance with the directors' remuneration policy.

4.Propose the objectives and criteria for measuring the variable remuneration of the executive directors and assess their

degree of achievement thereof, submitting the corresponding proposals to the Board.

5.Analyse, where appropriate in accordance with the approved remuneration policies, the need to make ex ante or ex post

adjustments to variable remuneration, including the application of reduction or recovery clauses for variable remuneration,

submitting the corresponding proposals to the Board of Directors, prior report of the relevant committees in each case.

6.Propose on an annual basis to the Board of Directors the annual report on the remuneration of the Bank's directors, which will

be submitted to the Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting as set out in applicable legislation.

7.Propose to the Board of Directors the remuneration policies for senior managers, the Identified Staff and the Group as a

whole; and, oversee its implementation, including the supervision of the process for the identification of the aforementioned

Staff.

8.Proposed to the Board of Directors the basic contractual conditions for senior managers, including their remuneration and

severance payments in the event of termination and directly oversee their remuneration within the framework of the

remuneration policy applicable at any given time to Senior Management..

9.Propose to the Board of Directors the criteria for the determination of the variable remuneration of the heads of the

Regulation & Internal Control area and the Internal Audit area and propose such remuneration, submitting the corresponding

| p.270 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

proposals to the Board of Directors, based on their performance evaluation, submitted to it in turn by the Risk and

Compliance Committee and the Audit Committee, respectively.

10.Ensure compliance with the remuneration policies established by the Institution and review them periodically, proposing

modifications, where appropriate, to ensure, among other things, that they are adequate to attract and retain the best

professionals, so that they contribute to the creation of long-term value and adequate control and management of risks, and

that they attend to the principle of pay equality; in particular, ensure that the remuneration policies established by the

Institution are subject to internal, central and independent review at least once a year.

11.Verify information on the remuneration of directors and senior managers contained in the various corporate documents,

including the annual report on the remuneration of directors.

12.Report, in advance of any decisions that, as the case may be, must be adopted by the Board of Directors or, where applicable,

the Executive Committee, on all matters within its remit as provided by law, the Bylaws, or any of the Company’s governing

body regulations.

13.Oversee the selection of external advisers, whose advice or support is required for the performance of their functions in

matters of remuneration, ensuring that any potential conflicts of interest do not impair the independence of the advice

provided.

At the end of 2025 financial year, the Remuneration Committee was composed of five members; all of them had the status of non-

executive directors, with the majority being independent, including the Chair. The names, positions and status of the members of

the Remuneration Committee are detailed in the following table (1):

shape-7dd45261c6e4d405.gif

Name and surname(s) Position Status
Ms. Ana Revenga Shanklin Chair Independent
Ms. Lourdes Máiz Carro Member Independent

Mr. Carlos Salazar Lomelín Member External
Mr. Jan Verplancke Member Independent

The directors who have been members of the Remuneration Committee during 2025 have received a total amount of 278

thousand euros for their membership. The Annual Report on BBVA Directors' Remuneration referred to said financial year includes

the individual remuneration of each director, broken down by remuneration items.

The Remuneration Committee performs its functions with full autonomy of operation, meeting as often as necessary to carry out

its duties, headed by its Chair. In 2025 financial year it met on a total of 5 occasions.

In order to adequately perform its functions, the Committee uses advice provided by the Bank's internal services, and may also

make use of any external advice it needs to establish criteria on matters within its remit. Thus, during 2025 the Committee has

relied on information provided by the leading global consulting firm on compensation of directors and senior managers, WTW, and

has received legal advice from the law firm J&A Garrigues S.L.P.

In addition, the Board's Risks and Compliance Committee also participates in the process of establishing remuneration policies,

ensuring that they are compatible with adequate and efficient risk management and do not offer incentives to take risks that

exceed the level tolerated by the Group.

BBVA has the following remuneration policies, designed within the framework of the regulations applicable to credit institutions,

and considering best practices and recommendations at the local and international level in remuneration matters (hereinafter, the

“Remuneration Policies”):

| p.271 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

–The BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy (the “BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy” or the “Policy”),

which applies, as a general rule, to all employees of BBVA and of the companies comprising its Group (the “Group

Entities”). This Policy includes the specific rules applicable to the Identified Staff, including members of BBVA’s Senior

Management (excluding executive directors, whose remuneration is governed by the BBVA Directors’ Remuneration

Policy), as well as the process for their identification.

The BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy applicable during the 2025 financial year was approved by the Board of

Directors, at the proposal of the Compensation Committee, on March 29, 2023.

The BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy is coordinated at the corporate level by BBVA’s Global Talent & Culture

area, and the Group’s control functions actively and regularly cooperate in its design and in overseeing its

implementation, in accordance with the powers conferred upon them under applicable regulations.

–The BBVA Directors’ Remuneration Policy (the “BBVA Directors’ Remuneration Policy”), which applies to all members

of the Board of Directors and which, in accordance with the provisions of BBVA’s Bylaws, distinguishes between the

remuneration system applicable to non-executive directors and that applicable to executive directors.

The BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy applicable during the 2025 financial year was approved by the BBVA General

Shareholders' Meeting held on March 17, 2023 for the 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 financial years and is available on the

Bank's corporate website (www.bbva.com).

As stated in this policy, the remuneration system for executive directors generally corresponds to that applicable to the

rest of the members of the Identified Staff, incorporating certain specific characteristics derived from their status as

directors. The remuneration system for non-executive directors is based on the criteria of responsibility, dedication and

incompatibilities inherent to the position they hold, and consists exclusively of fixed elements, with no variable

remuneration.

In accordance with the provisions of Article 529 novodecies of the Spanish Companies Act, upon completion of the final

financial year for which it was applicable, the Board of Directors, at the proposal of the Remuneration Committee, has

resolved to submit for consideration at BBVA’s 2026 Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting a new BBVA Directors’

Remuneration Policy for financial years 2026, 2027, 2028, and 2029.

The Board of Directors, as the highest body responsible for the representation, management, administration, and oversight of

BBVA, periodically reviews the remuneration policies and oversees its implementation, based on the information and report

received by the Talent & Culture area and the Internal Audit area, guaranteeing that the Policy is applied properly and in a manner

consistent with BBVA's Corporate Governance System.

For this purpose, the Bank is supported by the Remuneration Committee, which serves as a central element in the remuneration

decision-making process remuneration matters and which, as stated, is responsible for submitting proposals to the Board of

Directors both the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy and the BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy, for its subsequent

submission to the General Shareholders' Meeting in the latter case.

In application of Remuneration Policies, approved by the Bank's corporate bodies, during the 2025 financial year the

Remuneration Committee analysed the remuneration proposals needed for their development and implementation.

At the beginning of the financial year, the Remuneration Committee determined the Attributable Profit and Capital Ratio

thresholds that should be reached, as ex ante adjustments, for the generation of the 2025 financial year Annual Variable

Remuneration of the executive directors and the rest of the Identified Staff, as well as for the initial award of the Long-Term

Incentive that forms part of such remuneration, submitting the corresponding proposals to the Board for approval.

| p.272 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

Likewise, the Remuneration Committee determined the annual indicators used for the calculation of the Short-Term Incentive that

forms part of the Annual Variable Remuneration for the 2025 financial year of the executive directors and their corresponding

weightings, as well as the objectives and scales of achievement associated with said indicators, submitting the corresponding

proposals to the Board for their approval.

Likewise, the Remuneration Committee determined the long-term indicators that will be used to calculate the Long-Term Incentive

that forms part of the Annual Variable Remuneration for the 2025 financial year of the executive directors and the other members

of the Identified Staff, as well as their corresponding weightings, submitting the corresponding proposals to the Board for

approval.

Likewise, the Remuneration Committee determined, for its proposal to the Board, the objectives and scales of achievement

associated with long-term indicators approved by the Board for the calculation of the Long-Term Incentive that forms part of the

Annual Variable Remuneration for the financial year 2024 of the executive directors and the other members of the Identified Staff,

as well as the thresholds and the scales of Capital Ratio and Liquidity Coverage Ratio indicators, for the application of possible ex

post adjustments for risk (reduction) of the deferred portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration for the financial year 2023 and

2024 of the executive directors and the other members of the Identified Staff to be paid in 2026, with the prior analysis for the

latter issue of the Risk and Compliance Committee.

Moreover, in 2025, the Remuneration Committee submitted to the Board for its submission in turn to the General Shareholders'

Meeting held in 2025 the proposed resolution regarding the increase of the maximum level of variable remuneration up to 200% of

the fixed component of the total remuneration of a certain number of members of the Identified Staff, also proposing to the Board

the report accompanying this resolution, which was made available to the Bank's shareholders.

Likewise, in accordance with the proposal submitted by the Remuneration Committee, the Board approved the Annual Report on

the Remuneration of BBVA Directors for financial year 2024, developed in accordance with Circular 4/2013 of the National

Securities Market Commission (CNMV), which was submitted to an advisory vote at the General Shareholders' Meeting held in

2025, pursuant to article 541 of the Corporate Enterprises Act, and which was made available to the Bank's shareholders through

the corporate website (www.bbva.com).

The Annual Report on the Remuneration of Directors of BBVA  for financial year 2024  includes an overall summary of the

application of the Directors’ Remuneration Policy during financial year 2024, as well as details of the individual remuneration

accrued under all concepts by each of the directors during that year, and information on the Directors’ Remuneration Policy

applicable for financial year 2025.

Moreover, within the framework of the function attributed to the Remuneration Committee for the oversight and periodic review of

the established Remuneration Policies, the Committee reviewed their application in 2024, in accordance with applicable law and

recommendations. For this purpose, the review covered the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy, which includes the special

provisions for the Identified Staff, as well as the procedure for their identification, and the BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy

applicable in that financial year, based on an internal, central and independent review carried out by the Bank's Internal Audit area.

The result of all this was submitted to the Board of Directors.

Furthermore, the Remuneration Committee received from the global Talent and Culture area the information regarding the

application of the procedure for the identification of the Identified Staff for the 2025 financial year, both for BBVA individually and

for the BBVA Group at a consolidated level, in accordance with the qualitative and quantitative criteria established in the applicable

regulations and the internal criteria established by the Bank. In particular, it was informed of the number of persons included in the

Identified Staff and that no exclusions would be requested in 2025, the foregoing being duly reported to the Board of Directors.

Lastly, the Remuneration Committee carried out its review and analysis of the BBVA Directors’ Remuneration Policy with a view to

submitting the corresponding proposal, together with its specific report thereon, to the Board of Directors, for subsequent

submission to the General Shareholders’ Meeting for financial year 2026, in accordance with the provisions of Article 529

novodecies of the Spanish Companies Act.

Report for 2025 financial year, published on the Bank's corporate website on the occasion of the calling of the 2026 General

Shareholders' Meeting (www.bbva.com).

16 As regards non-executive directors, they are identified as Risk Takers under article 32.1 of Act 10/2014, although as specified in section 5.3 of this document, they

have a specific system of remuneration, different from that applicable to executive directors, and do not receive variable remuneration.

5.2.Description of the different types of employees included in the

Identified Staff

EU REMA a)

In accordance with BBVA Group's General Remuneration Policy, the selection of the persons who make up the Identified Staff

within BBVA and/or its Group is part of an annual process based on the qualitative and quantitative criteria established under

Article 32.1 of Act 10/2014 and (EU) Delegated Regulation 2021/923/EU of the Commission of March 25, 2021, supplementing

CRD IV (the "Delegated Regulation 2021/923/EU"). This process also includes internal criteria established by BBVA

complementary to those indicated in said Regulation, in compliance with Rule 38 of Bank of Spain Circular 2/2016 (hereinafter, the

"Identification Process").

The qualitative criteria established in the Identification Process are defined based on the level of responsibility of the position (for

example, members of the BBVA Board of Directors, members of BBVA Senior Management, staff responsible for control functions

and other key functions or significant business units within the Group), as well as on the basis of the staff's capacity or

responsibility to assume or manage risk.

The quantitative criteria establish that employees have a significant impact on the risk profile based on the total remuneration

awarded, unless BBVA determines that, in fact, the activity of such staff has no significant impact on the risk profile. The

application of these criteria takes into account the total remuneration awarded in the previous financial year, or the remuneration

established by the applicable rules at all times.

The Identification Process is updated during the year and takes all BBVA and BBVA Group personnel into consideration,

respectively, allowing the inclusion of personnel in the Identified Staff who meet or are likely to meet the qualitative criteria

established under applicable law for at least three months out of a given financial year.

The Group Entities actively participate in the Identification Process carried out by BBVA, providing all the information necessary in

order to adequately identify the personnel having a significant impact on the Group's risk profile.

In accordance with the Identification Process previously indicated, at the year-end 2025 a total of 376 Risk Takers, of which:

–198 were identified both at BBVA Group level and at individual level in BBVA,

–168 are only identified at BBVA Group level, and

–10 are only identified at individual level in BBVA.

These include:

–Members of the BBVA Board of Directors16.

–Members of BBVA Senior Management.

–Risk Takers by function: comprised by those members that carry out the functions that correspond to the qualitative

criteria established under Article 32.1 of Act 10/2014 and Delegated Regulation 2021/923/EU, as well as those Risk

Takers identified according to internal Bank criteria based on the Rule 38 of Bank of Spain Circular 2/2016.

–Risk Takers by remuneration: composed of those employees who meet the quantitative criteria of Article 32.1 of Act

10/2014 and Delegated Regulation EU 2021/923/EU.

The total number of Risk Takers identified in the 2025 financial year, which, as indicated above, was 376 persons, has increased

respect to the total number of members identified in 2024, which was 337 persons. This increase is primarily due to organizational

changes implemented in certain areas of the Bank, which resulted in the identification of new positions.

| p.275 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

In any case, BBVA adapts the composition of the Identified Staff, including the categories of professionals deemed necessary at

any time, in accordance with the requirements established for that purpose under the terms of applicable regulations.

5.3.Key features of the remuneration system

Article 450 (1) c), f) CRR

EU REMA b), e), f), g)

The BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy is geared toward the recurring generation of value for the Group, the alignment of

the interests of its employees and shareholders, prudent risk management and the development of the strategy defined by the

Group.

This policy is one of the elements devised by the Board of Directors, as part of the Bank's Corporate Governance System, to

promote proper management and oversight of the Institution and its Group, and is based on the following principles:

–long-term value creation;

–results attained through sound and responsible risk-taking;

–attracting and retaining the best professionals;

–rewarding the level of responsibility and professional career;

–ensuring internal equity and external competitiveness and equal pay for men and women;

–encouraging responsible conduct and fair treatment of customers, as well as avoiding conflicts of interest; and

–ensuring transparency of the remuneration model.

Based on the general principles above, BBVA has defined the Group's General Remuneration Policy, taking into account both

compliance with the legal requirements applicable to credit institutions and to the different sectors in which the Group operates,

and alignment with best market practices, including arrangements devised to reduce exposure to excessive risks and align

remuneration with the Group's strategy, objectives, values and long-term interests.

Thus, according to these principles, the Policy:

–contributes to the business strategy of BBVA and its Group, and to the achievement of its objectives, values and interests,

as well as value creation and long-term sustainability;

–is compatible with and promotes sound and effective risk management and does not provide incentives to assume risks

that exceed the level tolerated by the Institution or the BBVA Group, in a manner that is consistent with the BBVA Group's

risk strategy and culture;

–is clear, comprehensible and transparent, with a simple wording that enables the understanding of the different

components making up remuneration and the conditions for the accrual, award, vesting and payment thereof. To that

end, it distinguishes clearly between the criteria for determining fixed remuneration and variable remuneration and is

transparent as regards the setting of objectives and parameters for their calculation;

–It includes a competitive remuneration system, with the aim of attracting and retaining the best professionals and

adequately rewarding the duties performed;

–is gender neutral, as it reflects equal compensation for the same duties or duties of equal value and does not establish any

difference or discrimination on the basis of gender;

–includes measures to avoid conflicts of interest, promoting the independence of judgement of persons involved in

decision-making and in the oversight and control of management and the establishment of remuneration systems,

incorporating predetermined calculation rules that avoid discretion in their application; and

–pursues that remuneration is not based solely or primarily on quantitative criteria, taking into account appropriate

qualitative criteria, which reflect compliance with applicable regulations.

| p.277 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

In accordance with the above, the remuneration system generally applicable to all BBVA Group staff comprises the following:

a)A fixed remuneration, which takes into account the level of responsibility, the functions carried out and the professional

career of each employee, under the principles of internal equity and the market value of the function, constituting a significant

portion of the total pay. The award and amount of fixed remuneration are based on predetermined objective and non-

discretionary criteria.

b)A variable remuneration, consisting of payments or allowances in cash or in kind, in addition to fixed remuneration, which

depend on variable parameters and which includes both the annual variable remuneration associated to the corporate model

and, if applicable, other variable incentive schemes and any other variable component that BBVA or the Group's entities, at

any given time, may grant to their personnel or to certain groups of employees.

In no case will variable remuneration limit the ability of the Group to strengthen its capital base in accordance with regulatory

requirements and it shall consider current and future risks as well as the costs of the necessary capital and liquidity, reflecting

a performance that is sustainable and adapted to risk.

Guaranteed variable remuneration will only be awarded on an exceptional basis, in accordance with the terms established

under applicable regulations, and only, where applicable, for newly hired staff, limited to the first year of employment.

Within this remuneration model for general application, the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy includes certain special

provisions, applicable, on the one hand, to staff exercising control functions and, on the other hand, to staff exercising functions

related to the sale of products and the provision of services to clients. Thus:

i.Staff who perform control functions are independent from the units they supervise, have the necessary authority and are

remunerated according to the achievement of targets associated with their duties, regardless of the results of the areas they

supervise, thereby avoiding potential conflicts of interest.

In order to strengthen the independence and objectivity of these functions, and to reflect the nature of their responsibilities,

the fixed element of their remuneration has a greater weight than the variable element.

Likewise, in the weighting established for the calculation of the annual variable remuneration of employees exercising control

functions, the area and individual components will have a greater weight than that established for the Group component.

The remuneration of the members of BBVA's Senior Management in independent control functions is directly supervised by

the Remuneration Committee, as is the case with the rest of the members of BBVA's Senior Management, as the Board of

Directors is the body responsible for establishing the basic conditions of their contracts.

Moreover, the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the BBVA Remuneration Committee following prior analysis by the Audit

Committee and the Risk and Compliance Committee, respectively, is responsible for setting the targets and performance

evaluation of the global heads of the Internal Audit and Regulation & Internal Control functions or for the analogous functions

that may be established at any given time.

ii.The design and implementation of the remuneration of the Group staff involved in the provision of services to clients, watches

for the protection of their interests and the quality of the services provided, so that:

–responsible business conduct and fair treatment of clients is fostered;

–no incentives should be established that could induce staff to put their own interests or those of BBVA Group first, in

possible opposition to the interests of their clients;

| p.278 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

–remuneration is not primordially or exclusively linked to the sale of a product, or a category or specific type of product,

such as products that are more lucrative for the institution or employee, when there are others more in line with client

needs; and that this objective is not set as that with the greatest weight in the remuneration package; and

–an appropriate balance is maintained between the fixed and variable elements of the remuneration.

Moreover, BBVA and the Group Entities directly subject to the customer protection regulations must comply with the specific

remuneration requirements established at any time, as well as with any other regulations applicable to this group.

Pursuant to the legal requirements established by Act 10/2014 and its regulatory implementation, the BBVA Group General

Remuneration Policy defines specific rules applicable to the Identified Staff, in accordance with the regulations and

recommendations applicable to remuneration schemes for these employees.

The remuneration system of the Identified Staff focused specifically on aligning their remuneration with the risks, and also the

long-term objectives and interests of BBVA and its Group, whose fundamental characteristics are the following:

–Balance between the fixed and variable components of the total remuneration, in line with that established in the

applicable regulations, with the fixed remuneration constituting a sufficiently high part of the total remuneration and

allowing a fully flexible policy regarding the payment of variable components, which may cause them to be reduced, even

in their entirety, where appropriate.

The theoretical relative proportion between the main fixed and variable components of remuneration has been

established taking into account the type of functions carried out by each beneficiary (business, support or control) and,

consequently, their impact on the risk profile, adapted in each case to the reality of the different Group Entities or

functions.

–The variable element of remuneration for a financial year (understood as the sum of all variable remuneration) shall be

limited to a maximum amount of 100% of the fixed element (understood as the sum of all  fixed remuneration) of the total

remuneration, unless the BBVA General Shareholders' Meeting resolves to increase this percentage to a maximum of

200%. As explained in detail in section 5.7 of this report, the BBVA General Shareholders' Meeting held on March 21,

2025, authorized the increase in the maximum limit to 200% for a maximum of 309 Risk Takers.

–Within the framework of the BBVA Group's corporate variable remuneration model, the members of the Identified Staff

have an annual variable remuneration (the “Annual Variable Remuneration” or the “AVR”) that is aligned with the Group's

results and the achievement of its strategy, considering the risk incurred, and is comprised of a short-term incentive (the

“Short-Term Incentive” or the “STI”) and a long-term incentive (the “Long-Term Incentive” or the “LTI”).

In order to ensure alignment and linkage to results and long-term sustainability, the Annual Variable Remuneration

corresponding to each financial year will not be accrued or will be reduced in its accrual if certain profit and capital ratio

levels, which are approved by the Board of Directors upon proposal of the Remuneration Committee, are not reached.

The Short-Term Incentive, in line with the corporate variable remuneration model applicable to the rest of the Group's

employees, is awarded annually, reflects performance measured through the achievement of objectives aligned with the

risk incurred and is calculated on the basis of:

i.Group, area and individual metrics or indicators measured on an annual basis, which take into account the

strategic priorities defined by the Group, as well as current and future risks (the "Annual Indicators");

Each function within the organization is assigned a weighting that determines the extent to which the Annual

Variable Remuneration is linked to the performance of the Group, the area or the individual. The weighting of

each of these components ("Group, area and individual") depends on how closely the function is linked to the

overall strategy of the Group and the area.

| p.279 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

ii.the corresponding achievement scales to be established, according to the weighting attributed to each Annual

Indicator and based on the objectives established for each one of them; and

iii.a Target Short-Term Incentive, which represents the amount of the Short-Term Incentive if 100% of the pre-

established objectives are achieved (the "Target STI").

Once the financial year is closed, the result of each Annual Indicator will be compared with its target and, depending on its degree

of achievement and applying the corresponding scales and according to the weighting assigned to each indicator, the amount of

the Short-Term Incentive will be calculated, which may be between 0 and 150% of the Target STI.

The Annual Indicators are aligned with the most relevant management metrics and with the strategic priorities defined by the

Group. Therefore, the Annual Indicators for the calculation of the 2025 STI of the Identified Staff are as follows:

shape-37f5d200277c5528.gif

| TABLE 85. ANNUAL INDICATORS 2025 STI | | --- || | Weight | | --- | --- | | RORC | 35% | | Attributable Profit | 15% | | Fee and commission income | 10% | | Net Promoted Score (NPS) | 15% | | Target customers | 15% | | Channeling of sustainable business | 10% |

The Long-Term Incentive reflects the performance over a multi-year horizon and the determination of its final amount is

conditioned to the fulfillment of a series of long-term objectives that make it possible to evaluate the results and the fulfillment of

the Group's long-term strategy.

The Long-Term Incentive of the members of the Identified Staff will only be awarded in the event that the Group reaches the profit

and capital ratio thresholds approved by the Board of Directors for the accrual of the Annual Variable Remuneration. Once the year

has ended and the level reached with respect to these profit and capital ratio thresholds has been verified, the initial award of the

Long-Term Incentive will take place at its maximum theoretical amount.

The final Long-Term Incentive amount will be calculated by taking as a reference the Target Long-Term Incentive determined for

each member of the Identified Staff (the "Target LTI"), which represents the amount of the Long-Term Incentive in the event that

100% of the pre-established objectives are achieved, and based on:

i.financial and non-financial metrics or indicators with multi-year objectives established at the time of their the initial award,

that take into account the strategy defined by the Group and the creation of long-term value (the "Long-Term Indicators");

ii.the corresponding achievement scales, according to the weighting attributed to each Long-Term Indicator.

The final amount of this incentive may be between 0 and 150% of the Target LTI.

The approved Long-Term Indicators for the calculation of the Identified Staff's 2025 LTI are as follows:

| p.280 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

shape-5e6e35f46fee7573.gif

| TABLE 86. LONG-TERM INDICATORS 2025 (TARGETS FOR 2028) - LTI | | --- || | Weight | | --- | --- | | Tangible Book Value (TBV) per share | 40% | | Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) | 40% | | Decarbonisation of the portfolio | 15% | | Percentage of women in management positions | 5% |

The sum of the STI and LTI amounts awarded constitutes the Annual Variable Remuneration or AVR for the year for each member

of the Identified Staff.

The Annual Variable Remuneration of the members of the identified staff will be subject to the following consolidation and

payment rules:

–Once the Annual Variable Remuneration has been awarded, in the financial year following the one to which it corresponds,

a percentage of the Identified Staff's Annual Variable Remuneration (not exceeding 40% for executive directors,

members of BBVA's Senior Management and those members of the Identified Staff with particularly high variable

remuneration amounts, and no more than 60% for the rest of the Identified Staff) will be vested and paid, if the conditions

are met, normally in the first quarter of the financial year following the year to which the Annual Variable Remuneration

corresponds (the "Upfront Portion" of the Annual Variable Remuneration). The Upfront Portion will be comprised

exclusively of a percentage of the Short-Term Incentive.

–The remaining portion - and at least 60% for executive directors, members of BBVA's Senior Management and those

members of the Identified Staff with particularly high variable remuneration amounts, and at least 40% for the rest of the

Identified Staff - will be deferred for a period of 4 years (the "Deferred Portion" of the Annual Variable Remuneration or the

"Deferred Annual Variable Remuneration"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for executive directors and members of

BBVA's senior management the deferral period will be 5 years. In both cases, the Deferred Portion will be paid, if the

conditions are met, after the expiration of each of the deferral years and will not be paid more promptly than on a pro rata

basis.

Within such deferral period, the portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration corresponding to the Long-Term Incentive

will only begin to be paid after the expiration of the target measurement period of the Long-Term Indicators, the result of

which is conditional on the determination of its final amount. Thus, this incentive will be part of the Deferred Annual

Variable Remuneration of each member of the Identified Staff.

In accordance with the provisions of the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy, exceptions to the deferral rules may

be applied in the cases stipulated in applicable regulations.

–Both the Upfront Portion and the Deferred Portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration of each member of the Identified

Staff will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in BBVA shares or in instruments linked to BBVA shares. For executive directors

and members of BBVA's Senior Management, the Deferred Portion of their Annual Variable Remuneration paid in BBVA

shares and/or in instruments linked to BBVA shares will be higher.

In accordance with the foregoing, a portion of the Deferred Annual Variable Remuneration in shares may be delivered in

the form of options on BBVA shares.

In accordance with the provisions of the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy, exceptions relating to the payment in

shares or instruments linked to shares may be applied in the cases stipulated in applicable regulations.

–The shares or instruments received as Annual Variable Remuneration will be unavailable at least for one year from the

date of delivery. The foregoing shall not apply to the shares to be disposed of, as the case may be, to meet the tax

obligations arising from the delivery of the shares.

| p.281 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

–To ensure that the Annual Variable Remuneration relates to the performance of the Group's risks, the Deferred Portion

will be subject to possible ex post risk adjustments, such that it will not vest or may be reduced, if certain capital and

liquidity thresholds are not met.

This ensures that payment is only made if it is sustainable based on the Bank's ability to pay, based on its capital and

liquidity position at any given time.

–Furthermore, up to 100% of the Annual Variable Remuneration of each member of the Identified Staff corresponding to

each financial year, both in cash and in shares or instruments, shall be subject to clauses of reduction of the variable

remuneration (malus) and recovery of the variable remuneration already satisfied (clawback), both linked to a deficient

financial performance of the Bank as a whole or of a specific division or area or of the exposures generated by a member

of the Identified Staff, when such deficient financial performance is derived from any of the following circumstances:

a)Misconduct, fraud or serious infringement  of the Code of Conduct and other applicable internal regulations by an

Identified Staff member.

b)Regulatory sanctions or judicial convictions due to events that could be attributable to a specific unit or to personnel

responsible for such events.

c)Significant failure of risk management committed by the Bank or by a business or risk control unit, to which the wilful

misconduct or gross negligence of an Identified Staff member was a contributing factor.

d)Restatement of the Bank’s annual financial statements, except where such restatement is due to a change in

applicable accounting legislation.

For this purpose the Bank shall compare the performance assessment carried out for the Identified Staff member with

the ex post behaviour of some of the criteria that contributed to achieve the targets.

Both the malus and clawback clauses shall apply to both the cash portion and the share or instrument portion of the

Annual Variable Remuneration corresponding to the year in which the event giving rise to the application of the clause

occurred, and shall be in force during the period of deferral and unavailability of the shares or instruments applicable to

such Annual Variable Remuneration.

However, in the event that the above circumstances result in a dismissal or termination due to a serious and culpable

breach of duties of the member of the Identified Staff, the reduction mechanisms may be applied to the whole of the

Deferred Annual Variable Remuneration of previous years pending payment at the date on which the decision of

dismissal or termination is adopted, depending on the damage caused.

Moreover, if the above circumstances, regardless of the financial impact caused, create a relevant reputational damage

to the Bank, the malus and clawback arrangements may also apply to the Annual Variable Remuneration, including the

amounts deferred from previous financial years, whose payment corresponds to or has taken place in the financial year

in which the damage is revealed.

In any case, the Annual Variable Remuneration will only vest or be paid if it is sustainable according to the Group's

situation as a whole, and justified based on the results of the Bank, the business unit and the Identified Staff member

concerned.

In addition to the foregoing, the malus and clawback mechanisms shall apply to the variable remuneration received by

members of BBVA's Senior Management when the Bank is required to restate the accounting to correct an error that

would have resulted in the award and/or payment of variable remuneration that was erroneously calculated, if the

clawback of such remuneration is required under the policy adopted by the Bank in compliance with the standard

| p.282 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

approved by the New York Stock Exchange pursuant to Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Dodd-

Frank Recoupment Policy”).

In this case, the reduction and recovery mechanisms will apply to any erroneously calculated variable remuneration

received by the members of BBVA's Senior Management to whom the Dodd-Frank Recoupment Policy applies during

any of the three financial years immediately prior to the date on which the Bank is required to make the aforementioned

accounting restatement.

–The cash amounts of the Deferred Portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration finally vested shall be subject to

restatement, applying the consumer price index (CPI) measured as a year-on-year change in prices or any other criteria

established by the Board of Directors for the same purpose.

–Identified Staff members may not use personal hedging strategies or insurance related to Annual Variable Remuneration

and liability that undermine the effects of alignment with prudent risk management.

–In the event of termination of the contractual relationship of a member of the Identified Staff prior to the award of the

Annual Variable Remuneration, such member shall be entitled to receive, if the conditions for such termination are met,

the proportional part of such remuneration (comprising both the Short-Term Incentive and the Long-Term Incentive),

calculated pro rata to the time of rendering services in such year and being subject, in any case, to the same rules of

accrual, award, vesting and payment that would be applicable if the member of the Identified Staff had remained in active

service, in accordance with the rules described above. The above will not be applicable to cases where the termination of

the contractual relationship is due to a voluntary resignation or lawful dismissal, in which cases the employee shall not be

eligible for Annual Variable Remuneration.

In any case, the payments, both in cash and in shares or instruments, to be made to the members of the Identified Staff

corresponding to the deferred amounts of the Annual Variable Remuneration for financial years prior to that in which the

termination of their contractual relationship takes place, shall continue to be subject to the vesting and payment rules

(including deferral periods and potential ex post adjustments) provided in the remuneration policies applicable in the

financial year to which they correspond, in such a way that the termination of the contractual relationship shall not

constitute a condition for the prepayment of such remuneration.

–In the event that the members of the Identified Staff were entitled to receive any other remuneration item, other than the

Annual Variable Remuneration, which would be considered as variable remuneration, such variable remuneration shall be

subject to the rules of accrual, award, vesting and payment that are applicable in accordance with the configuration of the

remuneration item itself and with its nature and, in any case, the requirements of the applicable regulations at any time

shall be complied with.

–In particular, the retention bonuses to which members of the Identified Staff may contractually have the right, will be

considered variable remuneration and subject to the conditions established for them under the applicable regulations.

Thus, they will comply with the requirements regarding payment in shares or instruments, deferral and withholding rules,

ex post adjustments for risk and application of malus and clawback clauses established for Annual Variable Remuneration

in the Policy and, in the same way as Annual Variable Remuneration, they will count as variable remuneration for the

purposes of calculating the ratio between fixed and variable remuneration. In any case, the retention bonuses must be

duly justified and will be awarded once the retention periods have expired.

–In addition, BBVA's Directors' Remuneration Policy includes additional restrictions on the transferability of shares derived

from the settlement of the Annual Variable Remuneration of executive directors. Specifically, it establishes that once the

BBVA shares or instruments linked to BBVA shares have been received, they may not be transferred until a period of at

least three years has elapsed, except in the case in which the director in question maintains, at the time of the transfer, a

net economic exposure to the variation in the price of the shares for a market value equivalent to an amount of at least

twice his Annual Fixed Remuneration through the ownership of shares, options or other financial instruments. The

foregoing shall not apply to shares that the director needs to dispose of in order to meet the costs related to their

| p.283 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

acquisition or, subject to the favorable opinion of the Remuneration Committee, to meet extraordinary situations that

may arise.

–Moreover, in accordance with the provisions of BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy and in line with applicable

regulations, payments to members of the Identified Staff due to early termination of a contract will be based on the

results obtained over time. In no case shall bad results or inappropriate conduct be rewarded, and payments may not be

awarded in cases where there have been clear and serious infringements that justify the immediate termination of the

contract or the dismissal of the Identified Staff member. With regard to BBVA directors, the Bank has no commitments to

make severance payments.

As regards the pension policy, this shall remain compatible at all times with the Group's long-term business strategy, objectives,

values and interests. To this end, BBVA has a pension system which is arranged on the basis of geographic areas and coverage

offered to different groups of employees. These groups have been formed according to parameters that, among others, include,

origin (meaning the Entity of the Group in which the employees initiated the employment relationship); date of entry; and the level

or category of responsibility within the organization.

In general, BBVA's pension schemes to cover the retirement contingency are defined-contribution. Contributions to the Group's

employee pension schemes are made within the framework of relevant labour law and individual or group agreements applicable

to each Group Entity, sector or geographic area.

The scope of the system (cover for retirement, death and disability) for each group is defined in consideration of the three factors

mentioned above.

The basis for the calculation of the benefits described (commitments for retirement, death and disability) are established using

fixed annual amounts; there are no temporary fluctuations derived from variable components or Individual results.

However, in accordance with Bank of Spain Circular 2/2016, 15% of the annual contributions covering the retirement contingency

of the members of Senior Management of BBVA shall be considered "discretionary pension benefits" and therefore shall depend

on variable components and be subject to the conditions established for these instruments in the aforementioned Circular.

To comply with the above, the annual amount of the "discretionary pension benefits" will be determined by reference to the result

of the Annual Variable Remuneration awarded in each financial year and the following rules will apply:

–They shall form part of the total amount of variable remuneration for the purposes of the maximum limit between fixed

and variable remuneration;

–They shall be paid in full in BBVA shares;

–They shall be subject to a five-year withholding period from the date on which the beneficiary ceases to render services to

the Bank for any reason; and

–During the aforementioned five-year withholding period, the Bank may apply, if the corresponding conditions are met, the

malus and clawback arrangements applicable to Annual Variable Remuneration.

More detailed information on the implementation of the pension obligations for executive directors and other members of senior

management in the 2025 financial year can be found in Note 54 of the Annual Report of the BBVA Group's Consolidated Financial

Statements for the 2025 financial year, available on the Bank's corporate website (www.bbva.com).

The detailed description of the remuneration system applicable to BBVA directors in 2025 is included in the BBVA Directors'

Remuneration Policy, approved by BBVA´s General Shareholders ' Meeting held on March 17, 2023 for the financial years 2023,

2024, 2025 and 2026, and its implementation during the year is included in the BBVA Annual Report on Directors' Remuneration

for the 2025 financial year, both documents being available on the Bank's corporate website (www.bbva.com).

| p.284 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

As set out in those documents, in the case of the non-executive directors, they do not receive variable remuneration; they receive a

fixed annual amount in cash by virtue of their membership of the Board and, where applicable, of the various committees, as well

as for the performance of any other functions or responsibilities that may be attributed to them in the framework of the Bank's

Corporate Governance System. The amount of annual fixed allowance for each of the above positions or functions is set by the

Board of Directors, at the proposal of the Remuneration Committee, depending on the nature of the assigned functions and the

dedication and responsibility required from each role.

In addition, the BBVA non-executive directors have a fixed remuneration system with deferred delivery of BBVA shares, which has

been approved by BBVA General Shareholders' Meeting. This remuneration system comprises the annual allocation to non-

executive directors of a number of theoretical shares of the Bank, which are to be effectively delivered on the date of their removal

as directors for any reason except for a serious breach of their duties.

The annual number of theoretical shares allocated to each non-executive director shall be equivalent to 20% of their annual fixed

allowance in cash received by each in the previous financial year, according to the average closing prices of the BBVA share during

the 60 trading sessions prior to the General Shareholders' Meetings approving the corresponding financial statements for each

financial year.

The shares delivered by BBVA to directors and employees as part of variable remuneration or other remuneration systems form

part of its treasury stock, so their delivery does not entail any dilution for shareholders.

5.4.Information on the connection between the remuneration of the

Identified Staff and the Group's performance

Article 450 (1) b) CRR

EU REMA b), e), i)

As explained in the preceding sections, the BBVA Group's General Remuneration Policy provides for members of the Identified

Staff to receive an Annual Variable Remuneration, comprising a Short-Term Incentive and a Long-Term Incentive, the accrual of

which is subject to ex ante adjustments and the amount of which is calculated on the basis of the fulfillment of certain objectives

established for both the Annual and Long-Term Indicators, which serve, respectively, to calculate both incentives in accordance

with the scales of achievement and weightings associated with each one of them. In this way, the amount of Annual Variable

Remuneration received by the members of the Identified Staff is directly linked to the results of the BBVA Group and varies

according to them.

In 2025, the amount of the Short-Term Incentive of the members of the Identified Staff, with the exception of the executive

directors, has taken into account, in addition to the degree of achievement of the strategic objectives set at the Group level,  the

degree of achievement of the strategic objectives at the area level and those of each individual. Accordingly, the Group, area and

individual Annual Indicators used to calculate the Short-Term Incentive have a respective associated weighting, which, in each

case, is established according to the degree to which the function is linked to the objectives of the Group, area and the individual,

respectively.

The level of achievement of the Group's financial and non-financial Annual Indicators for incentive purposes is detailed below:

shape-775bbdd1ad82e7e6.gif

The Group's achievement for these indicators is calculated as the average weighted by the net margin of the<br><br>achievements obtained by the countries. | | | | | | | | |

In 2025 the BBVA Group reached a RORC of 21.13% (compared to 20.98% the previous year), driven by the higher Net

Attributable Profit in 2025. Likewise, the BBVA Group has accrued a  Net Attributable  Profit of €10,511 million, which compares

very positively with the figure of €10,054 million of last year  (+4.5%). This has been specially driven by the good performance of

the recurrent income (interest margin  and fees) of the banking business. This same figure has been taken for incentive purposes.

Similarly, the new indicator of Enterprises Fee Income, which measures fee income generated by the Corporate & Investment

Banking (CIB) and Enterprises and Institutional Banking (BEI) areas, with the aim of boosting business activity with enterprises,

fostering its growth and greater product diversification, has achieved a result of €2,577 million, which is above the established

target.

Likewise, in 2025, the Bank has channeled sustainable business for a total of €133,778 million in the environmental —which

includes climate and natural capital—and social areas, which also places the result of the Channeling of sustainable business

indicator above the established target.

| p.286 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

Meanwhile, the result of the Net Promoter Score (NPS) indicator closed the year slightly below the established target in the

different segments, notwithstanding the particularly good performance of Turkey and Colombia and, additionally, of the SME

segment in Mexico, Peru and Uruguay.

Finally, the Target Customers  indicator’s performance was particularly positive in the business segments  and in countries such as

Spain, Turkey and Peru, resulting in achievement above the established target.

The outstanding performance of the Group in 2025 is even more substantial when considering that the targets set for this year

were not only very challenging  but also well above the projections of the analysts’ consensus when they were approved.

Thus, the Annual Variable Remuneration of the members of the Identified Staff is linked, among others, to the financial and non-

financial results of the Group all within the framework and in accordance with the rules of the remuneration system indicated in

section 5.3 of this report.

5.5.Description of the criteria used to take into consideration

present and future risks in the remuneration processes

Article 450 (1) e) CRR

EU REMA c)

BBVA Group promotes the development of a risk culture at all levels in the organization through its Corporate Governance System.

Thus, BBVA's Corporate Bodies have provided the Group with a set of general policies and management and control basic

guidelines, that allow for integrated and consistent management and supervision across the Group, highlighting among these

guidelines the Risk Appetite Framework and the general policies on risk management by risk type.

The Remuneration Policies forms part of the elements designed by the Board of Directors, as part of the Corporate Governance

System, to promote adequate risk management and supervision in the BBVA Group. Among the principles inspiring it, is the

achievement of the results based on a prudent and responsible risk assumption.

Thus, in line with what has been set out in section 5.3 of this report, the remuneration policy applicable to executive directors, the

rest of members of BBVA Senior Management and the rest of the Identified Staff of BBVA and/or its Group features a number of

specific elements which make their remuneration take into account current and future risks for the Bank, promoting their prudent

and effective management, and not offering incentives to assume risks that exceed the level tolerated by the Institution or the

Group, consistently with the risk strategy and culture of the BBVA Group.

In particular, the Bank's Remuneration Policies establish:

–Balance between the fixed and variable components of total remuneration;

–Ex ante adjustments, compliance with which is verified prior to the accrual and award of the Annual Variable

Remuneration;

–Both Annual and Long-Term financial and non-financial indicators to evaluate the results, which take account both current

and future risks, and the strategic priorities defined by the Group;

–Consideration, in the measurement of performance, of financial and non-financial measures that value both the individual

management aspects and the objectives of the area and the Group;

–Greater weight assigned to the objectives related to specific functions in the measurement of the performance of the

members with control functions, and greater weight of the fixed remuneration over their total remuneration, in both

cases, to reinforce the independence and objectivity of these functions;

–Establishment of at least 50% of the Annual Variable Remuneration in BBVA shares or instruments linked to BBVA

shares;

–Deferral rules designed so that a substantial portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration (at least 60% in the case of

executive directors, other members of BBVA's Senior Management and members of the Identified Staff with particularly

high variable remuneration; and at least 40% in all other cases) is deferred over time, thus taking into account the

economic cycle and business risks.

–Inclusion of possible ex post adjustments for risk linked to the results of capital and liquidity indicators, so that if the

thresholds established for each of them are not met, the Deferred Portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration to be paid

each year may be reduced, even in full, thus guaranteeing that the payment is only made if it is sustainable in terms of the

Bank's payment capacity, based on its capital and liquidity situation at any given time.

–Mandatory retention periods for the shares or instruments derived from the Annual Variable Remuneration, so that the

beneficiaries cannot freely dispose of them, at least, until one year has passed from the date of delivery, except for those

shares that must be disposed of to meet the payment of tax obligations derived from their delivery.

| p.288 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

–Prohibition of carrying out personal hedging strategies or insurance related to the remuneration and liability;

–Limitation of the variable component of the remuneration for the year to 100% of the fixed component of the total

remuneration, unless the General Shareholders' Meeting of BBVA authorizes the application of a maximum ratio of 200%

for certain members of the Identified Staff, as explained in detail in section 5.7 of this report.

–Submission of the total Annual Variable Remuneration to malus and clawback clauses during the entire period of deferral

and unavailability, under the terms indicated in Section 5.3.

5.6.Main parameters and the motivation of any component of

possible variable compensation plans and other non-cash advantages

Article 450 (1) f) CRR

EU REMA g)

The main parameters and motivation behind the components of the variable remuneration plans of the Identified Staff have been

set out in the previous sections of this report.

5.7.Ratios between fixed and variable remuneration of the Identified

Staff

Article 450 (1) d) CRR

EU REMA d)

As indicated in section 5.3 above, in the total remuneration of the Identified Staff, the fixed and variable components are duly

balanced in line with the provisions of the applicable regulations, with the fixed remuneration constituting a sufficiently high part of

the total remuneration and allowing a fully flexible policy with regard to the payment of the variable components, which may lead

to their reduction, if necessary, to their entire amount.

The theoretical relative proportion between the main fixed and variable components of the Identified Staff's remuneration is

established taking into account the type of functions performed by each beneficiary (business, support or control) and,

consequently, their impact on the risk profile, adapting in each case to the reality existing in the different Group Entities or

functions in which the members of the Identified Staff carry out their activity.

To this end, the Bank has defined target ratios or paymix between the main components of fixed and variable remuneration, which

take into account both the function performed by each member of the Identified Staff as well as their impact on the risk profile.

Regardless of the foregoing, the variable element of the Identified Staff's remuneration corresponding to a financial year

(understood as the sum of all remuneration of a variable nature) shall be limited to a maximum amount of 100% of the fixed

element (understood as the sum of all fixed remuneration) of the total remuneration, unless the General Shareholders' Meeting of

BBVA resolves to raise such percentage up to a maximum of 200%, all in accordance with the procedure and requirements

established in the applicable regulations.

In this regard, the General Shareholders’Meeting held on March 21, 2025 resolved to increase the maximum level of the variable

component of remuneration up to a maximum of 200% of the fixed component of total remuneration for certain members of the

Identified Staff, in the terms indicated in the report issued for this purpose by the Board of Directors dated February 11, 2025.

Thus, the BBVA’s Board of Directors submitted the following proposed resolution to the General Meeting:

"For the purposes of the provisions of Article 34.1 g) of Act 10/2014 of June 26 on the regulation, supervision and solvency of

credit institutions, to approve a maximum level of variable remuneration of up to 200% of the fixed component of total

remuneration for a group of employees whose professional activities have significant impact on the risk profile of Banco Bilbao

Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (the “Bank”) or its Group, enabling subsidiaries of to likewise apply said maximum level to their

professionals, pursuant to the Report issued in this regard by the Board of Directors of the Bank, on February 11, 2025, and

which has been made available to shareholders as of the date on which the General Meeting was convened.”

This resolution was approved by the BBVA General Shareholders' Meeting for a maximum of 309 Risk Takers, with a favourable

vote of 98.76% of the capital present or represented at said General Shareholders' Meeting.

The proposal submitted to the General Shareholders' Meeting included the detailed recommendation of the Board, explaining the

reasons and scope of the resolution proposed to the General Meeting, and included the number of persons affected, their

| p.290 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  5. Information on<br><br>remuneration | | --- | --- |

positions, as well as the expected effect on maintaining a solid capital basis, taking into account the considerations established by

the competent authority as regards dividend distribution policies.

As reflected in the Board’s Report, the persons for whom approval of the higher level of remuneration for 2025 financial year was

requested performed one of the following functions:

–Members of the BBVA Board of Directors.

–Members of BBVA Senior Management.

–Members of the Identified Staff who perform their functions in the business areas of Spain, Mexico, Turkey, countries of

South America, and Corporate and Investment Banking (CIB).

–Identified Staff members who perform their functions in corporate support areas, working globally for the Group as a

whole, without being attached to a business area.

5.8. Quantitative information on remuneration of the Identified Staff

Article 450 (1) g), h), i), k) (2) CRR

EU REMA i), j)

After year-end 2025, the Annual Variable Remuneration corresponding to the members of the Identified Staff for said financial

year was calculated in accordance with the results obtained (described in Section 5.4 above).

In accordance with the vesting and payment system of the Annual Variable Remuneration for 2025 financial year applicable to

members of the Identified Staff:

–The Upfront Portion is vested and paid, as a general rule, in the first quarter of 2026 financial year, in a percentage not

exceeding 40% in the case of the executive directors, members of Senior Management of BBVA and those members of

the Identified Staff with particularly high variable remuneration amounts, and no more than 60% for the remaining

members of the Identified Staff. The Upfront Portion will be comprised exclusively of a percentage of the Short-Term

Incentive.

–The Deferred Portion, at least 60% for executive directors, members of BBVA's Senior Management and those members

of the Identified Staff with particularly high variable remuneration amounts, and at least 40% for the rest of the Identified

Staff, will be paid, if conditions are met, once each of the deferral years has elapsed and no more promptly than on a pro

rata basis. The deferral period will be 5 years for executive directors and members of the Senior Management and 4 years

for the rest of the Identified Staff.

Within such deferral period, the portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration corresponding to the Long-Term Incentive

will only begin to be paid after the expiration of the target measurement period of the Long-Term Indicators, the result of

which is conditional on the determination of its final amount. Thus, this incentive will be part of the Deferred Annual

Variable Remuneration of each member of the Identified Staff.

–Both the Upfront Portion and the Deferred Portion of the Annual Variable Remuneration of each member of the Identified

Staff will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in BBVA shares and/or in instruments linked to BBVA shares. For executive

directors and members of BBVA's Senior Management, the Deferred Portion will be paid 40% in cash and 60% in BBVA

shares and/or in instruments linked to BBVA shares.

In accordance with the foregoing, a portion of the Deferred Annual Variable Remuneration in shares  for 2025 financial

year will be paid in the form of options on BBVA shares.

In accordance with the BBVA Group General Remuneration Policy and in application of the provisions of article 34.2 b) of Law

10/2014 (transposing article 94. 3 b) of Directive 2013/36/EU into Spanish law), to a total of 20 members of the Identified Staff,

whose annual variable remuneration for financial year 2025 has not exceeded 50,000 euros and has not represented more than

one third of their total annual remuneration, has benefited from the exception provided in this regulation. Thus, the requirements

of deferral and payment in shares and/or share-linked instruments provided for in sections m) and l) of article 34.1 of Law

10/2014) will not apply to the Annual Variable Remuneration for the 2025 financial year of this group of employees.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Long-Term Incentive for 2025 shall not be consolidated or paid until the amount thereof is

determined in view of the result of the Long-Term Indicators approved for its calculation (at year-end 2028).

The total aggregate remuneration received by these employees in 2025 is 3,147 thousand of euros, of which 2,539 thousand of

euros is fixed remuneration and 608 thousand of euros is variable remuneration.

All of the above gives rise to the amounts presented in the following table, broken down by types of employees:

The information on the remuneration and other benefits to the Board of Directors and members of the Bank's Senior<br><br>Management is detailed in Note 54 of the report of the Consolidated Annual Accounts of the BBVA Group corresponding to the financial year 2025. | | | | | | | (2) Fixed remuneration for fiscal year 2025, both in cash and in kind. In the case of executive directors and Senior Management, the contributions made by the Bank in 2025 in relation to the<br><br>pension commitments assumed in matters of social welfare are included in Note 54 of the report of the Consolidated Annual Accounts of the BBVA Group corresponding to the financial<br><br>year 2025. | | | | | | | (3) In the case of non-executive directors, they have a fixed remuneration system with deferred delivery of BBVA shares after dismissal, as long as it is not due to serious breach of duties,<br><br>approved by the General Meeting. The number of theoretical shares assigned to each non-executive director in 2025 is equivalent to 20% of the annual fixed cash allocation received in<br><br>2023 by each of them, according to the average of the closing prices of the BBVA share during the 60 trading sessions prior to the General Meeting of March 21, 2025, which was 11,44575<br><br>euros per share. | | | | | | | (4) Total variable remuneration corresponding to the year 2025, which includes both the Annual Variable Remuneration and, for the purposes of this report, other payments considered<br><br>variable in accordance with the applicable regulations.

6.2.Selection, sustainability and diversity policy

Article 435 (2) b), c) CRR

EU OVB b), c)

The Bank has a Policy on the selection, suitability and diversity of BBVA’s Board of Directors (the “Selection Policy”), approved by

the Board of Directors, that sets out the principles and criteria governing the process for the selection, appointment and renewal of

BBVA Board members, as well as the legal requirements that directors must meet, including those relating to suitability. The

Policy also provides for elements and objectives concerning the composition of the corporate bodies, including diversity, the

purpose of which is to ensure that the corporate bodies properly and effectively exercise their functions; all of this in the Bank's

best corporate interest.

In this sense, the Selection Policy states that BBVA’s Board of Directors will promote diversity in the composition of the Bank's

corporate bodies by encouraging the inclusion of people with different profiles, qualities, knowledge, training and experience.

In addition, to ensure that the corporate bodies have an adequate and balanced composition, the Selection Policy provides that

directors’ renewal and selection processes will encourage diversity of their members, based on the needs of the Bank at all times.

In particular, efforts will be made to ensure that the Board of Directors has a balanced representation of men and women. In

selection processes for new Bank directors, carried out as part of the progressive refreshment process of the corporate bodies,

the Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee shall ensure that they promote diversity and that, in general, they are

free from implicit biases that may lead to discrimination.

Furthermore, the Committee will ensure that these selection processes facilitate the selection of a sufficient number of female

directors so as to guarantee a balanced representation of women and men, endeavouring to ensure that women who match the

relevant professional profile are included amongst potential candidates.

To this end, the Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee has set a target for representation of the lesser-represented

gender, namely that female directors should represent at least 40% of the members of the Board of Directors.

Additionally, the aim is for the composition of the Board of Directors to feature an appropriate balance between the different types

of director, for non-executive directors to represent an ample majority over executive directors and for the number of independent

directors to account for at least 50% of the total number of directors.

Under the Selection Policy, the corporate bodies will also assess the diversity of skills, experience and knowledge, combining

profiles who have experience and knowledge of the Group, its businesses and the financial sector in general, with others who have

training, skills, knowledge and experience in other areas and sectors relevant to the Bank.

In addition, BBVA's corporate bodies may take any other diversity factor into consideration that is relevant at any given moment to

adapt the composition of the corporate bodies to the needs of the Bank, including criteria such as training, professional

experience, knowledge, origin or age; thus ensuring an adequate balance so that that the corporate bodies can properly and

effectively exercise their functions.

In the framework of the above, the Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee analysed, on the occasion of the

assessment of the operation of the Board in 2024, the structure, size and composition of the Bank’s corporate bodies, the

conclusions of which were taken into account to submit the corresponding proposals for the re-election of directors that were

submitted to the Bank's Annual General Shareholders' Meeting held in 2025.

As a result of the foregoing, the Board of Directors submitted to the 2025 Annual General Meeting the re-election of Carlos Torres

Vila, Onur Genç and Connie Hedegaard Koksbang, as directors of the Bank, which allowed to maintain the presence of women on

the Board of Directors at 46.67% and the diversity of knowledge, skills and experience (national and international) in essential

areas for BBVA, which allows for a balanced, diverse and qualified composition.

| p.306 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  6. Information on the Corporate<br><br>Governance System | | --- | --- |

The Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee, as part of the annual Board assessment process for the 2025 financial

year, also carried out the periodic analysis of the structure, size and composition of the Board of Directors, in accordance with its

Regulations and the Selection Policy, to ensure that they are adequate for the performance of their functions.

As a result of the above, the Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee found that the composition of the Board, as a

whole, is appropriate, diverse and adapted to the needs of the corporate bodies, integrating individuals with different profiles,

knowledge and professional experience, combined with diversity in terms of gender and nationality, providing it with an in-depth

understanding of the environment, the strategy, activities, businesses and risks of the Bank and its Group; and that it consists of a

high number of independent directors whose level of dedication and participation make it possible for the Bank’s corporate bodies

to fulfil their functions in the best corporate interest.

In this regard, the composition of the Board complies with the requirements and objectives set out in the applicable regulations, in

its Regulations and in the Selection Policy, highlighting that there is an adequate balance between the different types of directors,

with a large majority of non-executive directors (13 out of 15, that is, 87%) and independent directors (10 out of 15, that is, 67%),

and with a level of gender diversity that meets the targets assumed by the Board.

The Board is also broadly diverse in terms of skills, knowledge and experience - both domestic and international, which has been

reinforced as a result of the renewal process carried out year after year, which have brought in new members who have

contributed to strengthening the Board's wealth of skills, knowledge and expertise in areas of special relevance for the

management and supervision of the Bank.

As a result of the analysis of the size, structure and composition of the corporate bodies carried out within the framework of the

evaluation process for the 2025 financial year, and taking into consideration the expiration of the term of some of the Bank’s

directors in 2026 and other circumstances that may affect the composition of the Board, the Appointments and Corporate

Governance Committee has continued to promote the progressive renewal process of the corporate bodies so that they can

continue to have the most appropriate composition for the best performance of their functions, which has culminated in the

proposals submitted to the 2026 Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting, in accordance with the information that is available to

shareholders through the BBVA corporate website, and described in the section above.

All of this allows the Board, as a whole, to have an adequate and diverse composition at all times and in-depth knowledge of the

environment, strategy, activities, businesses and risks of the Bank and its Group, resulting in a balanced composition adapted to

the needs of the corporate bodies, and therefore helping to ensure that it operates at all times in the Company’s best interests.

6.3.Committees of the Board of Directors

6.4.Information flow on risk

Article 435 (2) e) CRR

EU OVB e)

In accordance with BBVA's corporate governance system, the Board of Directors of the Bank has certain assigned functions in

risk-related matters, concerning both the management dimension — specifically, in connection with the adoption of the

corresponding most relevant decisions — as well as to the monitoring and supervision of the adopted decisions and the

management of the Bank.

In particular, the Board of Directors is responsible for establishing the Group's risk strategy and, in the exercise of this function, for

determining the risk control and management policy, which is materialized in the General Risk Management and Control Model

(the "Model"), the BBVA Group's Risk Appetite Framework and in the framework of the policies for the management of the

different types of risks (financial and non-financial) to which the Bank is or may be exposed, and which contain the basic guidelines

for managing and controlling risks uniformly across the Group, in a consistent manner with the Model and the Risk Appetite

Framework.

Furthermore, in parallel with the function of defining the risk strategy and within the scope of its risk monitoring, supervision and

control functions, the Board of Directors monitors the evolution of BBVA Group risks as well as the risks affecting each one of its

main geographical and/or business areas, ensuring that they comply with the BBVA Group's Risk Appetite Framework, and is also

responsible for overseeing internal information and control systems.

To guarantee an adequate performance of its management and supervision functions, the Board relies on the work carried out by

its different Committees, in accordance with the matters within the scope of their remit and as established in the Regulations of

the Board and in the regulations of its Committees, as well as on the information and documentation submitted by the executive

areas responsible for managing and controlling risks within the Group (the Global Risk Management Area and, as regards non-

financial risks and the internal control model, the Regulation and Internal Control Area).

Thus, for the adequate performance of its duties, the Board of Directors of BBVA, as a credit institution, is assisted by the Risk and

Compliance Committee, which provides support mainly, in matters related to the management and supervision of risks, and the

Executive Committee, which helps ensure its alignment with the established strategy.

In general, the Risk and Compliance Committee meets twice a month, in order to carry out a permanent and adequate monitoring

of the evolution of the risks of the Group.

As of December 31, 2025, this Committee is made up of non-executive directors, and a majority of independent directors,

including its Chair, all of them with sufficient knowledge, capacity and experience to understand and control the risk strategy of the

Bank and its Group.

The Risk and Compliance Committee's main task is to support the Board of Directors in determining and monitoring the Group’s

risk control and management policy, which includes both financial and non-financial risks; by submitting to the Board the Model

and the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework proposals, based on the strategic-financial approach which is determined by the Board

of Directors or the Executive Committee, thus ensuring its alignment with the Group's Strategic Plan in force at all times. In

addition, the Risk and Compliance Committee proposes, in a manner consistent with the Group's Risk Appetite Framework

approved by the Board, the Group's financial and non-financial risk control and management policies; and also participates in the

decision-making process regarding the strategic corporate projects or transactions presented to the Board of Directors or the

Executive Committee, assessing the associated risks.

On the other hand, the Risk and Compliance Committee monitors the evolution of the risks faced by the Group and their level of

adequacy with regard to the Group's Risk Appetite Framework and the established general policies, with greater frequency and

with a sufficient degree of granularity, which enables the adequate performance of its functions. Therefore, the Risk and

Compliance Committee obtains a holistic and global vision of all risks of the Group, both financial and non-financial, without

| p.310 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  6. Information on the Corporate<br><br>Governance System | | --- | --- |

prejudice to the support provided to the Board and the Risk and Compliance Committee by other Committees, which receive

information on certain non-financial risks by virtue of their speciality.

This monitoring by the Risk and Compliance Committee of the different types of risks, financial and non-financial, is reported by

the executive areas through three types of reports: (i) a general overview of the Group's risks, provided monthly by the Head of

Global Risk Management, supplemented, with respect to non-financial risks, with the monthly report from the Head of Regulation

& Internal Control; (ii) an overview on the most relevant risks of the main geographical and business areas in which the Group

develops its activity, through six-monthly reports from the Heads of Risks in each relevant geographical or business area; and (iii)

an update by type of risk, provided by means of the regular reports from the executives responsible for each type of risk within the

Group (financial and non-financial) and on a more frequent basis in credit risk matters (retail and wholesale), as well as in the

different non-financial risks (including, among others, the compliance risk).

In addition to the risk monitoring function performed by the Risk and Compliance Committee, the Executive Committee monitors

the evolution of the Group's risk profile through the monthly reports provided by the Head of Global Risk Management.

Besides the activity of both committees on risk-related matters, the Board of Directors itself is informed on a regular basis about

the evolution of the Group's main risks, both financial and non-financial, through the monthly activity reports of the Risk and

Compliance Committee, as well as the quarterly reports of the Head of Global Risk Management, the Head of Regulation & Internal

Control and the Chair of the Risk and Compliance Committee and the annual report specifically submitted by the Group's head of

RCS Engineering, who reports to the Head of Regulation and Internal Control.

Thus, the Board, with support from its committees, establishes the Group's risk strategy and oversees and controls the evolution

of all the risks in the Group and its main geographical or business areas.

For more details on the activity of the Board of Directors' committees in risk-related matters in 2025, please refer to BBVA's 2025

Annual Corporate Governance Report and the report on Board committees’ activity in 2025, both available on BBVA's corporate

Sustainability is integrated into BBVA's activity within a context of structural transformation driven by climate change and the

need to advance towards more efficient and resilient economic models. This process incorporates considerations related to the

protection of natural capital and the social sphere.

The world is experiencing an era of unprecedented change, and sustainability represents a major long-term opportunity:

Banks have a fundamental role to play, financing this transformation and channeling resources towards decarbonization

technologies that offer long-term profitability.

Within this framework, BBVA addresses this challenge with a holistic vision that integrates three key areas across the geographies

in which it operates:

In its strategic plan for the period 2025-2029, BBVA has set a new target of €700 billion for sustainable business channeling to

support individuals, businesses, and corporations in their transformation. This represents more than doubles the previous target

of €300 billion for the 2018-2025 period and is more ambitious, as it is planned for a shorter timeframe. In 2025, BBVA channeled

a total of €134 billion into sustainable business, marking a record year and representing 44%17 growth compared to the same

period of the previous year:

single joint proposal. Ultimately, it will reduce regulatory complexity, avoid overlaps and duplication, and improve consistency across sectoral regulatory frameworks,

particularly in areas such as ESG disclosures.

7.1.2. Regulatory framework

Implementing technical standards on ESG risk

On January 24, 2022, the European Banking Authority published its final draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) amending

the CRR with regard to Pillar 3 disclosures on environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks.

These ITS were subsequently incorporated into the body of European Union law through Commission Implementing Regulation

(EU) 2022/2453 of November 30, 2022, amending the implementing technical standards laid down in Implementing Regulation

(EU) 2021/637 with regard to the disclosure of environmental, social and governance risks. Subsequently, Implementing

Regulation (EU) 2024/3172 included the same requirements on environmental, social and governance risks already set out in

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2453.

In May 2025, the EBA published consultation document CP/2025/07, on amendments to the aforementioned Implementing

Regulation. The proposal introduces tougher and proportionate ESG risk requirements, with the aim of increasing the

transparency and consistency of disclosures, in line with the European Commission’s Omnibus proposal18. The proposal provides

for transitional provisions and supervisory flexibility so that during the transitional period, the publication requirement for certain

information, particularly information related to the European Taxonomy, is not prioritized, given that it is currently under review. In

August 2025, the EBA published a No Action Letter stating that, as from June 2025 and until the new ITS enter into force,

supervisory priority will not be given to the disclosure of certain information, including templates EU 6 to EU 10, as well as specific

data points in templates 1 and 4 related to the EU Taxonomy.

7.1.3. Governance model

Functions and responsibilities of the Corporate Bodies

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) e), Table (2) d)

BBVA’s sustainability governance model is integrated within the Group’s corporate governance system, under the terms detailed

below.

BBVA has a corporate governance system comprised of a set of principles, rules, and mechanisms that integrate and regulate the

structures and operation of its Corporate Bodies (hereinafter, the System or the Corporate Governance System). This System is

primarily defined by the provisions of the Bylaws, the regulations of its various Corporate Bodies, and the Bank's general policies

approved by the Board of Directors.

| p.315 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

The System is aligned with BBVA’s culture and values and is geared towards achieving the Group’s social interest and purpose. To

ensure this, the Board oversees its effectiveness, adapting it, when deemed necessary or appropriate, to the environment in which

its Group operate, taking into account applicable regulatory and supervisory requirements, industry best practices, and the

opinions of various stakeholders.

Within the framework of the Corporate Governance System, regarding its functions, the Board of Directors is responsible for those

established at any given time by applicable legislation and the Bylaws, and specifically those detailed in Article 18 of its

Regulations.

Among other functions, and as an essential part of the Corporate Governance System, the Board of Directors is empowered,

pursuant to Article 18.1. a) i) of its Regulations, to approve the Entity's general policies and strategies. In exercising this power, the

Board has defined a general management and control framework, comprised of the Group's main strategic and forward-looking

decisions (including the Strategic Plan, the Budget, and the Risk Appetite Framework), and has approved a series of general

policies containing the Board of Directors' main guidelines for the management and oversight of the Group's various areas of

activity.

Furthermore, the Board, either directly or through its Committees, generally monitors the implementation of decisions, including

overseeing the implementation of the aforementioned general management and control framework, and supervising the

management of the Company and its Group.

To ensure the proper fulfillment of its functions, the Board of Directors has a governance model that guarantees the participation

of all directors, with full freedom of judgment, and whose fundamental pillars are: (i) appropriate decision-making, oversight, and

control processes; (ii) a comprehensive, transparent, adequate, and consistent information model; and (iii) proactive management

of identified conflicts of interest, both actual and potential.

Governance model of the Corporate Bodies on matters of sustainability

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) e), f), g), Table (2) d), e)

Within the framework of the Group's overall management and control structure, the Board of Directors has approved the Strategic

Plan for 2025-2029, which includes, as one of its six strategic priorities, "Boost sustainability as a growth engine". In this regard,

the Corporate Bodies are promoting the integration of sustainability, encompassing ESG aspects, into all of the Group’s

businesses and activities from a global perspective, and ensuring the appropriate management of the material impacts, risks, and

opportunities arising from it.

To assist them in the above, the Bank has the Global Sustainability Area, which is responsible, among other things, for designing

and promoting the implementation of the Group's strategic sustainability agenda and business development in this area; for

establishing the Group's objectives in these matters; and for promoting and coordinating the different lines of work of the Group's

areas in this area, establishing for all of them the objective of promoting integrity in the relationship with the different stakeholders.

Furthermore, the various executive areas promote the different facets of sustainability within their respective areas of

responsibility, considering them in the definition of their strategies, work plans, initiatives, and resource management, and

establishing, where appropriate, objectives and metrics to measure the progress made by each area in these areas.

In particular, they are addressed in the Strategic Plan, which incorporates sustainability as one of its strategic priorities, namely

"Boost sustainability as a growth engine"; in the budget, which establishes annual targets for strategic indicators related to

sustainability, among others; and in the Risk Appetite Framework, which includes references to sustainability in the Risk Appetite

Statement, as well as specific metrics related to sustainability (e.g. the Net High Transition Risk metric and the decarbonization

metric for the lending portfolio).

Furthermore, various sustainability-related issues are also integrated into the Group's general policies, which establish the basic

management guidelines in different areas of particular relevance to the proper development of the Bank's activity.

| p.316 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

In this context, BBVA’s Corporate Governance System provides the Corporate Bodies with a holistic view of the different elements

that contribute to sustainability and long-term value creation, which the environment classifies as “ESG” factors or that should be

included within the concept of “sustainability”. This view encompasses, among other aspects, the management of the

environmental impact arising both from the Bank’s own activity and from that of its customers in relation to climate change; the

management of social issues, both internally and in its interaction with society and, in particular, with customers; as well as

governance aspects linked to the Group’s conduct and aimed at ensuring responsible and appropriate business conduct.

In particular, in carrying out the management and oversight functions related to sustainability, the Board of Directors has adopted

a governance model that centers on the Board itself and relies on the specialized assistance of its various committees on matters

within their respective areas of competence.

infografasig_2025.jpg

In the case of the Executive Committee, it supports the Board of Directors in decision-making and the ongoing monitoring of

BBVA's sustainability strategy and objectives. The Executive Committee also supports the Board in overseeing the development

and implementation of the strategy by the Group's various executive areas.

Meanwhile, the Risk and Compliance Committee supports the Board in integrating sustainability into the analysis, planning, and

management of the Group's financial and non-financial risks, and in monitoring their implementation.

The Audit Committee oversees the process of preparing and the content of the information that must be formulated by the

Corporate Bodies regarding sustainability for publication as part of the Group's public information.

The Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee, in addition to assisting the Board in evaluating the effectiveness of the

Corporate Governance System described above, also ensures that sustainability-related competencies are taken into account

when analyzing the composition of the Board of Directors.

On the other hand, the Remuneration Committee analyzes the selection and monitors the evolution of strategic indicators linked to

variable remuneration, including those related to sustainability.

Lastly, the Technology and Cybersecurity Committee supports the Board of Directors in monitoring the Group’s technology

strategy, as well as in overseeing technology risk and cybersecurity management, in a complementary and coordinated manner

with the other Board committees.

| p.317 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Through this governance model, the Corporate Bodies define, oversee, and monitor the implementation of the Group's

sustainability strategy, taking into account the impacts, risks, and opportunities it generates for the BBVA Group. It also allows the

Corporate Bodies to establish or oversee the establishment, at the executive level as appropriate, of the Group's objectives in

these areas and to monitor progress toward achieving them.

Integration of sustainability at the executive level across areas

The implementation of the sustainability strategy, approved by BBVA’s Corporate Bodies, requires cross-functional integration at

the executive level. For this implementation, the Group has a Global Sustainability Area, whose head reports directly to both the

Chairman, regarding transformation and sustainability strategy, and the CEO, regarding business matters.

Thus, the implementation of the sustainability strategy is cross-cutting throughout the Group, with all its areas responsible for

progressively incorporating it into their strategic agenda and work practices. To this end, the Global Sustainability Area is

responsible, among other things, for designing and driving the implementation of the Group’s strategic sustainability agenda

(focusing on combating climate change, protecting natural capital, and inclusive growth) and developing business in this area;

establishing the Group's objectives in these matters; and promoting and coordinating the Group’s various lines of work in this area,

developed by the different areas; while maintaining, across all areas of the Group, the objective of promoting integrity in

relationships with different stakeholders.

In this way, the sustainability governance model in the Group integrates the governance model of the Corporate Bodies with a

cross-cutting structure in the executive field led by the Global Sustainability Area, which drives the execution of the strategic

priority in the different areas of the Group, in accordance with the main areas of action foreseen in the Sustainability General Policy

of the Group (climate change and protection of natural capital as well as inclusive growth).

infografasig_202510.jpg

As shown in the above figure, the Global Sustainability Area incorporates dependencies from the business units of both

Commercial Client Solutions and Retail Client Solutions as well as CIB, a business unit with which it shares its Head, with the aim of

strengthening and accelerating the integration of sustainability into the Group's business.

In addition, BBVA has developed a network of experts made up of specialists in sustainability across different areas of the Group

(Retail Client Solutions, Commercial Client Solutions, CIB, Asset Management, GRM, Finance, Regulation & Internal Control, Legal,

Internal Audit, and the Global Sustainability Area itself). These specialist teams are responsible for building knowledge in the field

| p.318 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

of sustainability within the Group, aimed at developing customer-focused proposals and solutions, as well as for supporting the

different areas in the design and implementation of new value propositions in the field of sustainability, the integration of

sustainability risks into risk management, the management of non-financial risks, and the definition of a public sustainability

agenda and standards.

In 2022, the Sustainability Alignment Steering Group (hereinafter, the SASG) was created with the aim of putting forward

proposals and monitoring the alignment objectives for the sectors for which specific targets have been set, as well as overseeing

compliance with those objectives. This committee is led by the Global Head of Sustainability & Corporate & Investment Banking

and is composed of the global heads of Risk Management, Commercial Client Solutions and Strategy & M&A.

Following its passage through the SASG, the monitoring of compliance with the objectives, including the explanation of possible

deviations and redirection measures (if applicable) is presented on a quarterly basis for review at the highest executive level and

subsequently to the Corporate Bodies, with a minimum frequency of biannually.

With regard to the area of ESG public disclosure, the Group has an ESG Reporting Committee. The Committee serves as a

coordination and support body at executive level aimed at ensuring that the information to be disclosed on sustainability matters

that is to be formulated by the Corporate Bodies of the BBVA Group reflects the sustainability objectives and strategy, risk

management model and relevant quality standards. The Committee is led by the Finance area and the following areas participate

in it: the Global Sustainability Area, Global Risk Management, Regulation & Internal Control, Legal Services, the General

Secretariat, Data, the Chair’s Office, Talent & Culture, Strategy, Communications and Internal Audit.

On the other hand, the Group has a specific ESG dispute management procedure whose objective is to identify existing preventive

processes and establish the methodology for managing and resolving such incidents. In this context, it also highlights the due

diligence process carried out when verifying compliance with the Environmental and Social Framework and the Equator Principles.

For this purpose, there are decision-making and operational analysis bodies, such as the New Business Committee (hereinafter,

the NBC), which assess the results of the analysis of customer and project controversies. This committee, which meets at least

weekly and maintains a sector-based approach, evaluates transactions involving CIB and corporate segment customers, taking

into account both the specific environmental, social and governance risk factors affecting them, as well as other relevant factors.

Transactions approved by the NBC must also be submitted to the wholesale credit risk management committees for assessment.

To facilitate these decision-making processes, the GRM CIB ESG Risk team (which performs the CIB Reputation function) may

request additional analyses from the Holding Reputation unit. This unit periodically reports the Group’s reputational risks,

including the assessment of ESG risks from this perspective, to the Corporate Assurance Committee and to the Board’s Standing

Executive Committee.”

In addition, high-level oversight and governance are exercised over these processes. In this context, two key bodies are

responsible for monitoring and strategy direction:

–The CIB Engagement Oversight Group Client Committee (hereinafter, CEOG) monitors engagement and support plans

with customers within the framework of assessing compliance with the Environmental and Social Framework (which are

described in greater detail in section 7.3.1. about strategy and business processes). The CEOG meets annually by default,

although ad-hoc meetings may be held as and when needed.

–The Wholesale and Sustainability Committee is the main decision-making and monitoring body for the actions related to

the integration of climate and environmental risk within BBVA's risk management framework. Its responsibilities include

planning processes, the definition of appetite, and decision-making at the customer, transaction, or portfolio level, within

the scope of credit risk, markets, and structural risks. This is implemented through:

–Taxonomies of climate and environmental risks and their evolution.

–Methodological decisions in emission calculation engines impacting RAF metrics.

| p.319 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

–Approval of specific tools not considered as models.

–Decisions on the adoption of external models or the development of in-house calculation capabilities for climate

and environmental risk.

–Review and feedback from Wholesale & Sustainability Risk on the proposals to revise the Environmental and

Social Framework by the Global Sustainability Area.

For more information, see chapters 7.2., 7.3. and 7.4. on environmental, social and governance risk, under the sections on strategy

and risk management in this report, also mention issues related to the governance approach in the ESG field.

Activities of the Corporate Bodies on sustainability matters of frequency of meeting

Article 449 bis CRR – Table (1) h), Table (2) f)

The Board of Directors has approved the Strategic Plan for 2025-2029, which incorporates, as one of its six strategic priorities,

"Boost sustainability as a growth engine" and a Sustainability General Policy, that defines and establishes the general principles,

objectives, and management and control guidelines that the Group will follow regarding sustainable development, and whose

oversight falls to the Board itself.

In addition, the Board of Directors has adopted other specific management decisions in the field of sustainability, including the

establishment of a strategic sustainable business channeling indicator, setting a target of €700 billion for the 2025–2029 period,

which also forms part of the indicators established for employee incentives, following the achievement in 2025 of the €300 billion

sustainable business channeling target set for the 2018 to 2025 period; and portfolio decarbonization targets in certain sectors,

aligned with the objective of achieving net zero emissions by 2050.

To monitor and control the implementation of the decisions adopted by the Board of Directors regarding sustainability, the

Corporate Bodies rely on periodic reports received from both the Global Sustainability Area and the various areas of the Group,

which incorporate sustainability into their business and activity reporting. These reports are submitted by the executive areas to

the Corporate Bodies according to their respective responsibilities, either on a regular basis or on an ad hoc basis.

To this end, it is worth noting that in 2025, the Corporate Bodies received regular, specific reports from the Global Sustainability

Area, enabling them to monitor the various aspects of the strategy related to sustainability and the established objectives in this

area, as well as the Group's main projects and lines of work in this field. Likewise, the Group's different business and global areas

reported to the Corporate Bodies on their activities, which include sustainability as a key pillar, given its strategic priority for the

organization. These reports detailed the specific initiatives, projects, and activities undertaken, and the resources available for

implementing this priority.

In this regard, within the framework of reporting on sustainability to the Corporate Bodies reports have been presented twice to

the Board and twice to the Executive Committee.

Remuneration policy with objectives related to environmental and social risks

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) i), Table (2) g)

BBVA has the following remuneration policies in place, designed within the framework of the specific regulations applicable to

credit institutions and taking into account best practices and recommendations on matters of remuneration both locally and

internationally (the “Remuneration Policies”):

1.The General Remuneration Policy of the BBVA Group, which applies, in general, to all Group employees, including BBVA's

Senior Management, with the exception of BBVA's executive directors, (the "General Remuneration Policy of the BBVA Group"

or the "Policy") and aims to regulate the remuneration of the Group's employees, establishing the particularities applicable to

certain groups of employees, such as personnel who perform control functions, personnel who perform functions related to the

sale of products and the provision of services to customers and personnel whose professional activities significantly affect the

risk profile (the "Identified Collective").

| p.320 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

2.BBVA's Directors' Remuneration Policy applies to all members of the Board of Directors, both executive and non-executive,

and aims to regulate their remuneration systems. It was approved by BBVA's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on

March 17, 2023, for the 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 financial years, and is available on BBVA's corporate website

(www.bbva.com).

Both Remuneration Policies are based on the same general principles and are geared towards the recurring generation of value for

the Group, the alignment of the interests of its employees and shareholders, prudent risk management, and the development of

the defined strategy.

Regarding the integration of sustainability into the corporate variable compensation model, BBVA has a corporate model for

annual variable compensation that, in general, applies to all employees, based on their roles, including executive directors, with

certain specific provisions arising from their position as directors.

This corporate variable compensation model consists of an incentive that reflects performance measured through the

achievement of objectives associated with annual financial and non-financial performance indicators at the Group, area, and

individual levels (except in the case of executive directors, whose annual variable compensation is calculated exclusively based on

Group indicators). These indicators take into account the strategic priorities defined by the Group, as well as current and future

risks, and allow annual variable compensation to be linked to the degree of achievement of the BBVA Group's strategy.

In fiscal year 2025, the level of achievement of the annual Group-wide indicators, which are shared by the executive directors, the

rest of BBVA’s Senior Management and the Group’s workforce, amounted to 115% (126% in 2024), based on the results achieved

for each of the financial and non-financial indicators. The level of achievement of the annual Group-wide indicators for incentive

purposes is detailed below:

In particular, the annual indicators include the sustainable business channeling indicator, which measures the volume of

sustainable business channelled by BBVA in the environmental area (which includes climate and natural capital) and in the social

area, and is directly related to the Group’s strategic priority of “Boost sustainability as a growth engine”. Likewise, these indicators

include the NPS, which seeks to assess customers level of recommendation, as well as the factors that influence this decision.

19 BBVA publishes all information related to compliance with social and governance factors in the Annual Management Report.

| p.321 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

In the case of the members of the Identified Collective, including the executive directors, their annual variable remuneration under

the corporate model includes a short-term incentive, calculated on the basis of the annual indicators described above, and,

additionally, a long-term incentive. The long-term incentive will be calculated based on the results of a set of group-wide, multi-

year financial and non-financial indicators, which prioritize value creation and profitability for shareholders and for the Group over

the long term, as well as the progressive achievement of the Group’s sustainability goals and objectives.

Among the indicators used to calculate the long-term incentive include a portfolio decarbonization indicator, which measures the

level of achievement of the decarbonization targets for a number of sectors for which BBVA has set specific objectives and is

therefore directly linked to the BBVA Group’s strategic priority of “Boost sustainability as a growth engine”. In addition, an

indicator measuring the evolution of the percentage of women in management positions across the BBVA Group is included, which

is fully aligned with the Group’s strategic priority of “Strengthen our empathy, succeed as a winning team”, guided by BBVA’s

Purpose and its values and behaviors.

The long-term indicators used to calculate the long-term incentive for the Identified Collective, including the executive directors

and the rest of BBVA’s Senior Management, which forms part of the annual variable remuneration under the corporate model for

fiscal year 2025, and whose achievement will be determined at the end of the corresponding measurement period (at year-end

2028), are detailed below:

shape-b86eadb1825ba1f7.gif

TABLE 95. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE FOR THE IDENTIFIED GROUP 2025 – LONG–TERM INDICATORS (BBVA GROUP)<br><br>(MULTI–YEAR MEASUREMENT PERIOD WITH TARGETS FOR 2028)

Tangible Book Value per share (TBV per share) 40% 40%
Relative Total Shareholder Return (Relative TSR) 40% 40%
Decarbonization of the portfolio 15% 15%
Percentage of women in management positions 5% 5%

Both the short-term incentive and the long-term incentive are calculated by reference to the respective target incentives of each

beneficiary, which represent the amount of the incentive in the event that 100% of the pre-established objectives are achieved.

Specifically, regarding the executive directors, their annual variable remuneration consists of a short-term and a long-term

incentives, which, in 2025, are weighted at 64% and 36%, respectively.

Taking these weightings into account, together with those assigned to each of the annual and long-term indicators, the non-

financial or sustainability-related indicators —NPS, target customers, sustainable business channeling, decarbonization of

portfolio and the percentage of women in management positions— represent, both in 2025 and 2024, 32.8% of the executive

directors’ target annual variable remuneration.

Commitment to employee and labor standards compliance, customer protection and product

responsibility19

Article 449 bis CRR – Table (2) d)

With its aim of strengthen empathy and succeed as a winning team among the Group’s six strategic priorities, BBVA reaffirms its

commitment to talent management as a key asset of the new 2025–2029 Strategic Plan. To achieve this, BBVA promotes a

corporate culture aligned with its purpose and values that fosters empathy, integrity and excellence in service. All of this reinforces

the Group’s ability to generate differentiated customer experiences, which is decisive in advancing the strategic priority of “Embed

a Radical Client Perspective in all we do”.

20 The adjusted gap calculation includes 89.4% of the Group’s employees. The remaining employees cannot be included in the calculation because they are associated

with positions in which there is no representation of both genders.

21The median is used for this calculation, since this statistical indicator is less affected by the presence of biases in the distribution of extreme values and better

represents the Group’s real situation.

| p.322 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Within the framework of BBVA's new strategy the Group has redefined its roadmap around four fundamental pillars, on which it

has launched various initiatives throughout 2025.

image38.jpg

–The Group's cultural transformation seeks to strengthen employees’ connection with customers in order to bring the new

purpose to life. To this end, throughout 2025 this transformation was reinforced through the evolution of processes, work

habits and signals of change.

–The strategic talent planning ensures that the Group has the appropriate organizational structures and teams to

successfully execute the strategic plans of each area, in an environment where artificial intelligence is transforming the

ways of working.

–BBVA is reinforcing its commitment to attracting and developing top talent, promoting a meritocratic culture based on

leadership and excellence, supporting internal mobility, and developing a diverse and inclusive environment.

–Finally, BBVA is fostering an emotional connection between employees and the company – a “love brand” – by promoting

work-life balance, supporting social initiatives, and enhancing the employee experience through streamlined internal

processes. In this regard, the Group has launched a new global engagement survey, which results show a high level of

employee engagement with BBVA, with a participation of 79% of staff  and a consolidated Group score of 90 out of 100,

placing it 15 points above the benchmark of the company Kantar.

Remuneration policies

The corporate governance system defined by the Board of Directors, which guarantees sound management and supervision of the

Group, includes gender-neutral remuneration policies and practices, compatible with prudent and effective risk management,

aimed at encouraging responsible conduct and fair treatment of customers, while helping to avoid conflicts of interest and

promoting competitive remuneration.

BBVA's remuneration policies are gender-neutral, reflecting equal remuneration for the same functions or functions of equal value,

and not establishing any difference or discrimination based on gender. The remuneration model rewards the level of responsibility,

the functions performed and the track record of each employee, ensuring internal equity and external competitiveness, as well as

equal pay between men and women.

The BBVA Group’s20 adjusted pay gap21 for the 2025 and 2025 financial years is 0.3% y 0.6%, respectively.

| p.323 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Code of Conduct

The Code of Conduct establishes that all members of the BBVA Group must act with integrity and responsibility, respecting

applicable laws and regulations, and demonstrating the prudence and professionalism befitting the trust placed in BBVA by its

customers and shareholders.

To strengthen awareness and understanding of the code of conduct, BBVA offers a mandatory corporate course that all

employees complete periodically (generally every three years). This course includes messages from Senior Management, who

address various aspects of conduct relevant to employees' daily work, thus reflecting Senior Management's commitment to

strengthening the company culture. The Compliance function monitors course completion, establishing mechanisms and

reminders for those who have not yet finished.

Additionally, the Group offers various courses on business ethics, notably the Anti-Corruption Policy training.

Labor rights

Working conditions, along with the rights and obligations of the Group's staff, are regulated by rules, agreements and collective

and individual agreements, in compliance with the legal provisions in force in each geography where BBVA operates.

In accordance with the above, the regulatory framework governing the conditions of the entire workforce is as follows:

–Labor regulations applicable in each of the geographies where BBVA operates. These consist of laws, regulations, or rules

issued by the competent authorities in each geography and apply to all employees in that region.

–Sectoral agreements signed with the corresponding trade unions, which complement and, where appropriate, improve

the provisions of applicable labor regulations. For example, in Spain, the Banking Collective Bargaining Agreement is

negotiated within the banking sector and applies to its employees; this is the agreement that applies to BBVA, S.A.

–Bilateral agreements between the entity and the unions that may take place in each of the Group's companies. These

must comply with the provisions of the regulations or sectoral agreements, and may improve upon them.

–Unilateral measures carried out by each entity to improve what is provided for in the previous aspects.

To ensure regulatory compliance, coordinate negotiation processes, and monitor the effectiveness of agreements reached, BBVA

has local labor relations and advisory teams in each geography. In companies without dedicated teams, specialized external

lawyers are hired. Additionally, a global team with a comprehensive view of labor issues provides guidance and strategic advice to

the local teams.

The agreements described are updated as frequently as required by regulations or as determined by the negotiating parties.

Employees' working conditions and rights are communicated through standard internal channels —Intranet, Talent & Culture

portal, electronic communications, corporate forums, employment contracts, and onboarding—, ensuring transparency and

accessibility of information.

This labor legislation, which regulates the obligations and rights of workers, covers a wide range of aspects of working conditions,

such as working hours, vacations and leave (paid or unpaid), types of contracts, disciplinary procedures, remuneration and

benefits, etc.

22 High-emitting sectors: Oil & Gas (upstream), Power (generation), Auto (manufacturers), Steel (manufacturers), Cement (manufacturers), Coal (thermal coal mining),

Aviation (airlines), Shipping (operators), Real Estate (residential), Real Estate (commercial), Aluminum (primary production). The geographical scope of the 2030

interim emission reduction target for the Real Estate sector (commercial and residential) is Spain.

7.2.1. Strategy and business processes

Sustainability in the business model and corporate environment

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) a), b)

BBVA strengthens sustainability as a driver of differential growth, with the ambition of continuing to lead a transformation that

represents a major opportunity and requires significant investments in key industries, productive sectors, and value chains. To

succeed, the Group supports its customers with specialized advice and provides the necessary financing to meet the demand for

more efficient and environmentally responsible energy solutions, while maintaining its commitment to the social sphere. In this

way, BBVA consolidates sustainability as an essential pillar of competitiveness and long-term development.

BBVA integrates climate change management as a cornerstone of its corporate strategy. In this regard, the Group has defined a

decarbonization roadmap that makes it possible to identify, measure and reduce the environmental impact of its activity,

promoting a transition toward a low-carbon economy that encompasses both its operating footprint and its financial activity.

Accordingly, the Group has established emissions reduction targets for both its loan portfolio22, and its own operations through

the Global Eco-Efficiency Plan (hereinafter, the GEP).

Furthermore, as presented in section 7.1.1. on sustainability as a growth engine, BBVA promotes the channeling of sustainable

business as a strategic axis to address the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The performance achieved in 2025 represents progress towards meeting the €700 billion channeling target set by the Group for

the 2025-2029 period: BBVA reached a record €134 billion channeled into sustainable business during 2025, of which €104 billion

is associated with the environmental domain, and the remainder with social activities.

The Group develops specific initiatives in the environmental field and carries out differentiated monitoring of the distribution

channel according to each customer segment:

image39.jpg

Criteria for determining the sustainable business channeling

To determine the sustainable business channeling, BBVA takes into account the following regulations and main market standards:

–Existing regulations: these primarily consider the current taxonomies of sustainable activities in the different geographical

areas where it has a presence.

–Market Standards for dedicated-purpose products and activities: these mainly include the Green Bond Principles and

Social Bond Principles of the International Capital Markets Association, as well as the Green Loan Principles and Social

Loan Principles of the Loan Market Association.

–Market Standards for general-purpose products and activities (usually linked to ESG indicators or criteria to incentivize

positive sustainability behavior): these include the Sustainability-Linked Bond Principles of the International Capital

Markets Association and the Sustainability-Linked Loan Principles of the Loan Market Association.

–Internal Standards: BBVA also applies internal standards inspired by local taxonomies (in the European case, considering

the element of “substantial contribution” to the environmental objectives defined by these taxonomies) and market best

practices. These standards may incorporate a degree of flexibility when applied in non-European regions, with the aim of

reflecting national characteristics and avoiding the exclusion of emerging markets. BBVA also assesses the sustainable

activities of its customers that comply with internal standards and/or applicable regulations, based on their publicly

available information. For this purpose, it may use external data providers and recognized business certifications.

Sustainable business channeling amounts are calculated using internal criteria based on both internal and external information,

whether public, supplied by customers, or provided by third-parties (primarily data providers and independent experts).

Integration of sustainability into financial planning

To strengthen the cross-cutting integration of sustainability, BBVA has incorporated other aspects related to sustainability into its

day-to-day operations, both in its relationship with customers and in its internal processes, including its management control and

reporting processes. The following actions can be highlighted:

–Progressive integration of sustainability into financial reports for Senior Management and the business areas.

In Spain for example, these reports include an analysis of the trend in profits and returns and the impact on the income

statement, and certain decisions on how best to allocate internal resources are made on the basis of this information.

23 The figure includes information from Spain, Mexico, Turkey, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Uruguay and Holding.

| p.326 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

–Use of financial information for decision-making based on the sustainability axis.

Likewise in Spain, for example, this information includes data on sustainable business channeling, profitability,

percentage of penetration of sustainable activity, as well as balance sheets and income statements that enable the Group

to monitor the sustainable business for each segment of activity.

–Incorporating global and local sustainability projects into the SDA (Single Development Agenda) project agenda.

The SDA is a uniform governance framework through which projects are prioritized and the financial resources and

human capital necessary for their execution are allocated. The amount allocated to sustainability-related projects totalled

€42 million in 2025 (€52.5 million in 2024)23.

Alignment of the loan portfolio with the Paris Agreement

Article 449 bis CRR - Template 3

To advance decarbonization, BBVA:

–Develops a decarbonization strategy for the loan portfolio and investment products, tailored to the specific

characteristics of each sector and supported by specific transition plans, with metrics and monitoring systems that

enable the continuous assessment of decarbonization progress and data-driven decision-making.

–Sets intermediate emission reduction targets for 2030, which steer the loan portfolio's evolution towards pathways

aligned with decarbonization scenarios, in accordance with the Guidelines for Climate Target Setting for banks issued by

the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP-FI).

Considering the above, in 2021 BBVA announced its objective of phasing out thermal coal activities, by ceasing to finance

companies involved in these activities in 2030 in developed countries by 2040 globally (under the terms of the Environmental and

Social Framework).

Likewise, in 2021, using the PACTA (Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment) methodology, BBVA published its 2030

alignment targets for the Power Generation, Automobile, Steel and Cement sectors. The Net Zero scenario of the International

Energy Agency (IEA_NZE) and the Institute for Sustainable Futures Sectoral Pathways to Net Zero Emissions (ISF-NZ) was used

as a benchmark. In 2023, the International Energy Agency published an update to the 2050 net zero emissions scenario. BBVA’s

interim decarbonization targets to 2030 published in 2021 remain unchanged.

During the year 2022, BBVA published its alignment target for the Oil & Gas sector. BBVA was involved in defining a specific set of

guidelines for this sector. However, given its significance in terms of global emissions, the PCAF methodology has been used for

the calculation and a scope 1, 2 and 3 absolute emission reduction target has been set for the upstream Oil & Gas sector (which

includes oil exploration, drilling, extraction and production).

In 2023, the 2030 alignment targets were published for the Aviation and Shipping sectors. As a benchmark, the net zero scenario

of the Institute for Sustainable Futures’ Sectoral Pathways to Net Zero Emissions (ISF-NZ) for Aviation and the emissions

reduction strategy for Shipping set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2023 were used.

Finally, in 2024, BBVA published its 2030 intermediate emission reduction targets for additional sectors: the Aluminum sector and

the commercial and residential Real Estate sectors in Spain. For the Aluminum sector, the Net Zero scenario of the International

Aluminium Institute (IAI) and the 1.5°C Roadmaps of Mission Possible Partnership (MPP) were used as references; these are

science-based benchmarks recognized by the industry.In the case of the real estate sector, the scope of the target is limited to

Spain, and the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC) was used as the reference roadmap defining national targets

for emissions reduction, renewable energy penetration and energy efficiency. This scenario forms the basis of BBVA’s

assumptions, and its successful implementation will be key to achieving the proposed decarbonization targets.

Methodological notes on the alignment calculation

Scope

The analysis was carried out for BBVA, S.A., BBVA Mexico, BBVA Peru, BBVA Argentina, BBVA Colombia and Garanti BBVA24. In

the real estate sector, both commercial and residential, the alignment calculation applies only to properties in Spain. According to

the PACTA methodology, emission intensity is calculated for the part of the value chain where the majority of emissions are

generated, in order to optimize emissions within the sector. In this way, it is assumed that aligning the part of the value chain

responsible for emissions aligns the sector as a whole.

* BBVA has set the goal of phasing out its exposure to coal customers by 2030 in developed countries and by 2040 globally, under the terms of its

Environmental and Social Framework.

(1) In 2024, closing data for the Commercial real estate, Residential Real Estate, and Aluminum sectors were not published, as a full 12-month cycle had not yet

(3) The ISF-NZ scenario does not consider the belly freight factor. BBVA portfolio metric in gCO2/PKM adjusted for the annual belly freight factor.

(4)  A positive score indicates that the portfolio intensity is higher than required by the decarbonization pathway. A negative score or 0 indicates that the portfolio

intensity is aligned.

25 The primary provider of emissions intensity information is Asset Impact (formerly Asset Resolution), which provides asset information for the portfolio included in the

calculation scope.

26 Oil & Gas companies with exploration, drilling, and extraction activities.

| p.330 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

The metrics used are emission intensity per unit of production for sectors that use the PACTA methodology (Power Generation,

Steel, Cement, Automotive and Aviation) and for the Maritime Transport, Real Estate (both commercial and residential), and

Aluminum sectors. To calculate the metric, each customer is assigned25 an emissions intensity figure based on their production

capacity. The portfolio alignment metric for each sector is calculated as the weighted average of each customer’s emission

intensity, weighted by their share in the portfolio. Each customers weight corresponds to the financing provided, adjusted by the

percentage of their activity and the different technologies used in their economic activity.

In this calculation, the customer total exposure is used (disbursed plus committed but not disbursed), except for the Oil & Gas

sector, where the portfolio alignment metric is an absolute emissions metric with a 2021 baseline, and the reduction target is only

associated with disbursed financing.

Specifics in the metrics used of certain sectors:

Oil & Gas

The metric for the fossil fuel sector (Oil & Gas) has been defined based on absolute emissions financed. It comprises the three

scopes (1, 2 and 3) of the upstream26 and parent companies operating within the industry, and emission reduction targets have

been set. The methodology used is PCAF. First, the in-scope exposure of each customer is defined, meaning the customer

subsidiaries with upstream business. Once this exposure has been calculated, it is used to calculate an emissions attribution factor

as indicated by PCAF. This factor is used to calculate the emissions to be attributed to BBVA as financier.

Aviation

In the case of the Aviation sector, most airlines, when calculating the emissions intensity of their aircraft, equate the cargo carried

by the aircraft with the passengers equivalent to that cargo. Therefore, they include total emissions in the numerator and the

aircraft’s total load in the denominator, equating passengers and cargo (emissions CO2/pkm “passenger kilometer”). BBVA’s

external provider’s database includes total aircraft emissions in the numerator but does not include cargo transported in the

denominator (its passenger equivalent). This makes it hard to compare the metric with our peers, with what is reported by the

airlines and with the various scenarios, and it ends up overestimating the emissions intensity of each aircraft. BBVA makes an

initial calculation of the metric using the available data, without altering the supplier’s data. To facilitate analysis, the intensity data

is subsequently calculated by applying a load factor correction, and is thus published in the non-financial information statement.

Following this methodological adjustment, the figure stands at 85 g CO2/pkm).

Shipping

For the Shipping sector, a methodology inspired by the main alignment methodology of the sector has been used. For each

customer and each vessel, an emission intensity was calculated and compared individually with the IMO scenarios, thus yielding a

score. These scores are aggregated by weighting each customer’s exposure to obtain a portfolio score.

Real estate assets

The portfolio alignment metric for commercial and residential real estate follows the CRREM (Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor)

methodology, which defines a metric in terms of emission intensity (kg CO2e per square meter per year). CO2 emissions

calculations depend heavily on the energy matrix of the country where the property is located. Ideally, this data would come from

energy efficiency certificates. However, due to limited availability, lack of standardization, and infrequent updates of these

certificates, BBVA has opted to estimate emissions using the PCAF methodology, with values specific to each property type

according to its energy certificate.

27 The achievement and progressive advancement of decarbonization objectives will depend to a large extent on the actions of third parties, such as customers,

governments, and other stakeholders, and therefore may be materially affected by such actions, or the lack thereof, as well as by other exogenous factors beyond

BBVA's control (including, but not limited to, new technological and regulatory developments, armed conflicts, and the ongoing climate and energy crises).

Consequently, these objectives may be subject to future revisions.

28 It includes committed financing, both drawn and undrawn, with wholesale customers of CIB and Commercial Banking, except for the Oil & Gas sector, which only

considers drawn financing with wholesale customers of CIB and Commercial Banking.

| p.331 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Aluminum

The portfolio alignment metric for this sector is calculated using the Sustainable Aluminum Finance Framework developed by the

Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI). At present, it is the only standardized methodology available for the sector and provides banks

with the tools needed to measure, compare, and disclose the climate alignment of their loan portfolios in this sector.

Calculation of the scenario

For the alignment calculation, BBVA uses the IEA Net Zero scenario as a reference, except in the cases of Steel and Aviation, for

which the ISF-NZ scenario prepared by the University of Technology Sydney for UNPRI has been used.  However, the data used as

a reference in 2030 for the calculation of the distance may differ from the data published by the scenarios. The PACTA

methodology uses the aforementioned scenarios as a reference for emissions reductions to meet a 1.5°C scenario, but applies a

different starting point. The starting point applied is the result of aggregating all the customers in the database used, taking this

aggregation as the market reference.

Integration into management and sectoral alignment plans

With the aim of reducing emissions, BBVA has designed a strategy focused on the progressive alignment of its portfolio with the

objectives of the Paris Agreement, contributing to limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

The decarbonization strategy for aligning the loan portfolio is based on a management model that includes three elements:

image35.jpg

Development of sector alignment Plans, with intermediate targets to 203027 for the most emissions-intensive sectors, allowing the

specific characteristics and challenges of each industry to be addressed in its transition to a low-carbon economy (Oil & Gas,

Power Generation, Auto, Steel, Cement, Coal, Aviation, Shipping, Aluminum and the Real Estate sector, both commercial and

residential), following the Guidance for Climate Target Setting for banks of the United Nations Environment Programme Finance

Initiative (UNEP-FI).

For each sector, the Group conducts a detailed analysis that assesses its role in decarbonization, as well as the main risks

and opportunities, the current state of the portfolio28, and its progress toward the targets set. These plans define a

sectoral decarbonization path and a business strategy that guides selective growth, considering both the risk profile and

the business opportunities associated with the transition.

Sectoral alignment plans are developed through a structured three-phase process: sector analysis, an overview of the

customer portfolio, and the identification of business opportunities arising from the decarbonization context. They also

incorporate the business projections defined in the five-year Industrial Plans, the sectoral and customer-type appetite

identified in the Asset Allocation, and the Sectoral Frameworks from the Risk area. Additionally, BBVA continuously

| p.332 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

monitors its exposure to these activities and directs capital allocation toward initiatives and projects related to

decarbonization and the energy transition.

1.Assessment of customers’ transition plans using specific tools integrated into the business strategy and the risk

management process, with the aim of quantifying the risk arising from potential misalignment of customers with their

expected commitments.

2.Integration into the annual customer review and operations admission process, evaluating the execution of customers'

transition plans and the impact of individual transactions on achieving portfolio alignment objectives.

To promote the operationalization of the decarbonization strategy for portfolio alignment, BBVA has developed specific

tools such as, for example:

–Transition risk indicator (TRi): this tool allows for the evaluation of each customer's current emissions profile and

the maturity of their decarbonization strategies, using a sector-specific approach and based on the analysis of

the most significant variables. It categorizes customers according to their transition risk and the maturity of their

plans, facilitating personalized advice.

–Sustainability Client Toolkit: this tool gathers ESG information from large corporations and/or entities in a single

repository, facilitating access and use by customer relationship management teams.

–Management dashboard for sectoral transition plans: this dashboard compiles the main alignment indicators

obtained using the PACTA (Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment) methodology and facilitates the

monitoring of their evolution and progress toward achieving objectives.

–"What if" simulator: this tool allows for the real-time evaluation of the potential impact of transactions on both

each customer's decarbonization curve and the BBVA Group's portfolio curve for the corresponding sector,

enabling proactive and dynamic portfolio management.

This management model allows for tracking objectives and capturing potential business growth. The allocated resources are

directed towards the development, creation, and integration of specific tools into BBVA's systems that enable the monitoring and

control of defined sector plans, as well as their application in the deal admission process. This includes evaluating customers'

transition plans, identifying gaps in relation to trajectories compatible with the climate transition, and designing and implementing

engagement plans.

Sector-specific transition plans, along with the aforementioned tools (e.g. TRi), allow for an assessment of the maturity level of

customer transitions in order to deploy a support strategy, strengthen strategic dialogue with them, and offer a value proposition

tailored to their needs.

Supporting customers during the transition

The Group's engagement strategy aims to establish a structured framework for interaction that facilitates customers' progress

toward sustainable business models. This approach pursues a dual strategic objective:

–Integrate the identification of customers' climate and transition risks into the Group's operations and processes, ensuring

consistency with strategy and risk appetite.

–To drive BBVA's sustainability strategy by actively supporting customer transformation through financing and advisory

solutions.

This support process focuses on wholesale customers of CIB and Commercial Banking belonging to sectors intensive in emissions

or affected by sector alignment frameworks.

| p.333 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

The relationship model is based on a collaborative and continuous approach, articulated through:

–Strategic dialogue: to identify and understand specific challenges and opportunities for each counterparty.

–Specialized advice: assistance in defining transition strategies and access to technical solutions.

–Value proposition: provision of sustainable financial solutions.

–Sectoral participation: active involvement in forums and working groups to share best practices.

This model allows BBVA to gain in-depth knowledge of the risk profile of its most heavily issuing customers. Thanks to this

understanding, the Group offers a high-value-added service that strengthens long-term trust and enables it to tailor the necessary

measures to each individual case.

The Group monitors the effectiveness of this support through tracking indicators that assess the customer's progress and actual

engagement. These results are submitted to the relevant supervisory body (CIB Engagement Oversight Group - CEOG), enabling

dynamic risk management. In cases where progress does not align with established objectives, mitigation measures may be

considered, including, among others, limiting the growth of exposure.

Governance model for the loan portfolio decarbonization strategy

Sustainability and climate change are integrated into BBVA's governance through principles and mechanisms that facilitate

decisions aligned with its long-term strategy.

The Sustainability General Policy establishes the general principles of action including, among others, those aimed at supporting

customers in their transition towards more sustainable business models.

image28.jpg

To monitor the decarbonization strategy of the loan portfolio and its degree of alignment with the established objectives, BBVA

created the Sustainability Alignment Steering Group (SASG) in 2022. This committee is led by the Global Head of Sustainability &

Corporate & Investment Banking and comprised of the Global Heads of Global Risk Management, Commercial Client Solutions,

and Strategy & M&A. Its main functions include:

–Analyzing and discussing the 2030 emissions reduction targets, which are presented by the Global Head of Sustainability

& Corporate & Investment Banking for approval by the BBVA Executive Committee and Board of Directors.

–Evaluating the degree of compliance with the objectives and the evolution of the loan portfolio decarbonization strategy.

–Analyzing and discussing the proposals for sectoral alignment plans and their updates, submitted by the business units

with the support of the technical teams.

| p.334 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

–Promoting the creation and deployment of the necessary tools, methodologies, and metrics to integrate sectoral plans

into existing management processes.

–Analyzing and understanding best practices in the sector, promoting the integration of sustainability criteria into daily

business operations.

In 2024, the Group strengthened its decarbonization strategy governance model by implementing a sector-based model for CIB

and corporate customer segments. This structure incorporates specialists with experience in each key sector, enabling more

effective support, a stronger strategic dialogue, and more efficient attention to business needs.

In this way, BBVA has global sector heads in the priority sectors for decarbonizing its lending portfolio: energy; industry and

transport; and infrastructure and construction. These leaders are responsible for guiding the business strategy for each sector,

executing the actions defined in the sector alignment plans, and implementing a support plan to assist them in their transition to a

low-carbon economy. Additionally, BBVA completes its sector coverage with managers in the consumer, retail, and healthcare

sectors; technology, media, and communications (TMT); financial institutions; and financial sponsors.

image44.jpg

Information derived from monitoring sector-specific plans is taken into account in risk assessment processes, particularly

regarding credit and transition risks, considering customers' capacity to move towards models with a lower environmental impact.

This risk analysis contributes to business decision-making and the updating of sector-specific plans, facilitating the prioritization of

sectors or customers and the adjustment of support strategies.

(Templates 6 to 10)—has been suspended until December 31, 2026 for large and listed institutions. This postponement is part of

the transitional measures adopted by the EBA.

Furthermore, the EBA has recommended that competent authorities adopt a position of supervisory flexibility during this

transitional period.1 In particular, it is suggested that the requirement for such information not be prioritized in the context of

supervision. In its “no-action letter” (published on August 6, 2025), the EBA formally advised regulators to support the transitional

suspension of the disclosure of these templates.

Consequently, the new EBA technical framework29, which is pending official publication, maintains the legal suspension of the EU

Taxonomy and GAR disclosures until the end of 2026.

Therefore, BBVA has considered omitting information on the EU Taxonomy for now. These measures reduce the operational

burden through to the future legal obligation, and allow reasonable time to adjust systems, processes and collect data.

Policies and procedures related to customer engagement in their strategies to mitigate and

reduce environmental risks

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) d)

BBVA obtains and analyzes information from its customers to proactively and constructively offer them solutions that will help

them in their transition toward a more sustainable future. This is done according to the customer's progress in their

decarbonization process, always aligned with their 2050 decarbonization strategy and their strategy to achieve the interim

emissions reduction targets for 2030 within the framework of their transition plan.

To this end, BBVA has policies and procedures in place that enable it to mitigate and reduce environmental risks affecting its

customer’s strategies. These standards and policies define key responsibilities, processes and tools applicable to each of the

portfolio segments, as well as the Group's functions as part of climate and environmental risk management activities.

The main policies and rules are detailed below:

–Wholesale Credit Risk Management Policy, which incorporates the identification, management, and monitoring of risks

and opportunities associated with environmental aspects as a core part of its risk management strategy. It also

establishes measures to enhance the management and monitoring of wholesale portfolios, along with management

criteria and limits.

–Wholesale Credit Risk Management Standard, which details the analysis of climate and environmental risks to be

conducted during the credit risk underwriting process in the annual customer review (Financial Program) and the tools to

be used. This includes the sustainability due diligence process, compliance with the limitations outlined in the

Environmental and Social Framework, customer-level transition risk mitigation policies defined in the Sector Frameworks

based on the Transition Risk Indicator, controversy analysis (understood as the presence of significant incidents related

to the customer’s environmental, social, or governance performance), and the criteria for defining risk appetite indicated

in the Sector Alignment Plans.

–Retail Credit Risk Management Policy, which establishes measures to enhance the management and monitoring of

transition and physical risks in mortgage, SME, and auto loan portfolios, as well as differentiated criteria for mitigating

transition and physical risks.

–Retail Credit Risk Management Standard, which details the information-gathering processes necessary to analyze climate

risks (both physical and transition) in mortgage, SME, and auto loan portfolios.

–Collateral Standard, which specifies, as key considerations in evaluating collateral strength and risk, the potential loss of

value of real estate collateral due to climate risk, both transition and physical, as well as the adequacy of associated

insurance coverage.

Similarly, measures are specified to enhance the management, monitoring, and disclosure of physical and transition climate risks

in the Policies and Standards on market and counterparty risk, interest rate risk, banking book equity risk, and liquidity and funding

risk.

Additionally, BBVA has plans and procedures for supporting customers. BBVA's customer support strategy is based on

constructive and ongoing dialogue, aimed at assisting customers in designing and implementing their transition strategies toward

more sustainable business models.

One of the main purposes of this customer support is to understand the risk profile of counterparties in order to align the Group’s

strategy and risk appetite, while also supporting customers in achieving their objectives based on the results of the materiality

assessment.

on environmental risk business strategy and processes.

7.2.2. Risk management

Integration of climate change and environmental factors and risks into the risk framework

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) j), r)

The management of climate and environmental risk factors is key to implementing BBVA’s strategy, which is based on properly

managing risks, supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy, and fulfilling the ambition of achieving net-zero carbon

emissions by 2050.

The potential impacts of climate and environmental (C&E) risks, as well as social and governance risks, are assessed in the risk-

management cycle as follows:

Identification and assessment of climate and environmental risks

To carry out the process of identifying the risks and opportunities associated with climate change and other environmental

aspects, BBVA has identified the sectors carrying the highest climate and environmental risk. To this end, in recent years BBVA

has developed its internal taxonomies for transition climate risks, physical climate risks, and other environmental risks (natural

capital), understood as common definitions of the risk drivers and their transmission channels with potential impacts on traditional

prudential risks:

canalestransmision_ingxok.jpg

BBVA has a risk taxonomy that is part of its risk management framework. The taxonomy constitutes an inventory of all the risks to

which BBVA is exposed, or may become exposed, by carrying out its business and pursuing its business strategies, and is

therefore tailored to BBVA’s risk profile.

The taxonomy allows risks to be categorized into different levels. On the one hand, there is a general level or “tier 1 risks”, which

corresponds to the most aggregated categories of financial and non-financial risks. “Tier 2 risks” represent a lower or more

granular level, corresponding to the risk drivers that form part of the “tier 1 risks”.

In the latest review of the risk taxonomy, climate and environmental, social and governance risks have been defined as a cross-

cutting category, as they are considered a source of existing risks, with a cross-cutting impact on different tier 1 risk categories.

Risk Assessment

The climate risk assessment is updated semiannually and is supported by an internal scenario analysis tool that projects the

financial evolution of sectors and counterparties under alternative climate pathways across different time horizons. For transition

risk, reference scenarios from the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) (Net Zero, Delayed Transition, and Current

Policies) are used, and for physical risk, sets of pathways consistent with SSP2-4.5 and SSP3-7.0 are applied, including specific

water stress exercises. The projections are periodically integrated into monitoring indicators (e.g. transition, physical, and

alignment metrics) to prioritize supervision and customer engagement.

The results of the exercise show transition risk to be the predominant vector: the profile is low in the short term, medium-low in the

medium term, and medium in the long term, with the greatest contribution from credit portfolios (particularly wholesale) exposed

to sectors with higher decarbonization requirements and counterparties whose competitiveness depends on the adoption of low-

carbon technologies.

Physical risk remains contained at the aggregate level: low in the short term and medium-low in the medium and long term, with

geographic heterogeneity. Materiality is observed in the wholesale portfolios of Spain and Mexico, and more visible signals appear

in retail portfolios under acute hazards, with materiality in Mexico.

| p.339 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

The impact of transition risk on market risk is not material. Fixed income is positioned at medium-low, with no qualitative changes

compared to previous periods. Diversification by issuers and geographies, along with the use of hedges, contributes to the market

profile’s resilience against shocks associated with the transition. The physical risk component is assessed as low; under extreme

heat or flood scenarios, the most plausible channels would be commodities and volatility, without material effects on aggregated

sensitivities.

Regarding liquidity and funding risk, the profile is low in the short term and medium-low over the medium and long horizons.

Internal indicators remain within thresholds, with no signs of stress attributable to the climate scenario. A comfortable liquidity

buffer and stable market access are maintained; however, monitoring of potential funding concentrations related to HTR sectors is

reinforced. For the physical risk component, the exercises consider localized acute events; no material impacts are observed on

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and the Net Funding Stable Ratio (NSFR), although enhanced monitoring continues in geographies

with higher exposure to physical hazards.

Overall, the assessment confirms a stable profile in the short term and an increasing one in the medium-to-long term for transition

risk, while physical risk remains contained at the Group level.

From an operational perspective, the exercise generates calibration signals for RAF metrics and defines early warning thresholds

that trigger management actions when necessary. At the same time, it provides sector- and customer-level alignment information

that feeds portfolio planning and guides the reassignment of growth limits based on decarbonization pathways. On this basis,

priority is given to engaging with customers who have the largest gaps relative to the market pathway or significant physical

exposure, establishing milestones and monitoring mechanisms to assess effectiveness.

Analysis of scenarios and stress testing

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) n)

Scenarios and internal stress tests

The climate scenarios have been integrated into the governance of the BBVA Group's internal scenarios:

1.The baseline budget scenario includes an analysis of the climate policies in force in each relevant geographic area in which

BBVA operates, their effective importance within the general economic policy framework, their consistency with the

| p.341 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

transition to a decarbonized economy and with the budget scenario itself. Potential biases on expected economic growth

are therefore qualitatively assessed.

2.Incorporation of transitional climate risks into one of the alternative risk scenarios (HLRS) that are continuously

monitored and evaluated by the Scenario Working Group. The ongoing monitoring of alternative risk scenarios aids in

selecting the scenario to be used in the Group’s capital self-assessment process (ICAAP).

Since 2022, various physical risk events have been assessed in the Group with the aim of considering them as inputs for the

ICAAP. In 2022, a drought risk scenario in Spain was considered, while in 2023 a risk scenario for the Mexican economy triggered

by cyclones was considered as an additional input for the adverse ICAAP scenario. In 2024, events with simultaneous occurrence

across different geographies were defined, including drought scenarios in Spain and Mexico as part of the 2024 ICAAP adverse

scenario. In 2025, the focus remained on drought scenarios, as these events could become more severe in the long term, with their

scope extended to Spain, Mexico, and Turkey simultaneously.

Additionally, the adverse macroeconomic scenario incorporated, for the first time in 2024, an additional shock arising from a

transition risk scenario triggered by the bursting of a green asset bubble. The 2025 ICAAP adverse scenario maintains an

additional shock originating from a transition risk source, this time related to climate fragmentation between China and the USA

and Europe, stemming from an escalation of geopolitical tensions.

Regulatory and supervisory scenarios and stress tests

In early 2024, BBVA took part in the "One-off Fit-for-55" supervisory exercise, whose primary objective was to collect data on

credit and market portfolio exposures and transition climate risks associated with the Fit-for-55 package commitments.

Additionally, the request for information considers elements relating to the locations of the financed assets, in order to assess the

possible physical risks to which the banks' portfolio is exposed. Finally, information was also requested on the entity's income in

various sectors, with the aim of analyzing the dependence of financial entities on the most polluting sectors and evaluating the

associated business risk.

This request for information, coordinated by the EBA, adds data to the hierarchical projections made by the ECB. In November

2024, the EBA published a report detailing the results. The report stresses that climate transition risks alone do not pose a threat

to the financial stability of the European Union. However, combined with macroeconomic shocks, they can increase losses for

financial institutions and cause disruption. It also highlights the importance of proactive management of climate risks and the need

for close collaboration between financial institutions and regulators to ensure an orderly transition towards a sustainable

economy.

Processes to define, measure and monitor climate change and environmental risks

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) l)

Article 449 bis CRR - Template 1, 2, 4 y 5

Climate transition risk

Transition risks are those risks associated with the adjustment process toward a low-carbon economy in response to climate

change, arising from regulatory changes, market shifts, and consumer behavior changes necessary to meet global climate targets.

Sectors identified as having the highest climate risk face a significant transformation and adaptation challenge that requires

substantial investments. These are also the sectors that will require the most understanding and monitoring of risks.

BBVA has an internal sectoral taxonomy for transition risk, whose main objective is to identify sectors’ vulnerability to transition

risk and rank them accordingly.

In this way, sectors are categorized as very high, high, moderate, or low vulnerability. The sectors most sensitive to transition risk,

or High Transition Risk (HTR) sectors, are identified as energy or fossil fuel producers (Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Coal mining);

30 Measured by its EAD (Exposure At Default).

| p.342 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

basic industries with high emissions intensity (Steel, Cement) and end-user energy-consuming activities that generate emissions

through their products or services (Auto, Aviation, and Shipping).

Also, in 2025 the modification in the transition risk taxonomy has been approved, which expands the perimeter of the high

transition risk sectors, incorporating the intermediate (midstream) activities of the Oil & Gas sector, as well as the gas transport

and distribution activities and the supply of gas within the Power Generation sector.

As a result of this exercise, with data as of December 31, 2025, it was identified that 13.84% (11.7% in 2024) of the wholesale

portfolio exposure30 (representing 7.16% of the Group, 5.9% in 2024) corresponds to sectors defined as HTR, with a high or very

high level of exposure to this risk. This calculation was carried out on a portfolio of €291,540 million, 253,795 in 2024 (out of the

Group total of €563,583 million, €500,636 en 2024), corresponding to the exposure of the wholesale loan portfolio.

The following chart shows the percentage of exposure of each HTR sector relative to the total wholesale portfolio:

shape-23b365884fd2971f.gif

CHART 23. EXPOSURE TO SECTORS SENSITIVE TO TRANSITION RISK (% OF WHOLESALE EAD) (1)

chart-02f9f33bfb1b4219a6b.gif

* Includes Aviation and Shipping.

(1) The 2024 data differs from that published in the 2024 Non-Financial Information Statement due to additional checks.

Regarding the small business portfolio with high or very high transition risk, the associated exposure is limited, accounting for

approximately 2.80% of the total small business portfolio (2.10% in 2024) and is minimally representative of the Group as a whole.

The increase in HTR exposure is partly explained by greater financial support for customers in carbon-intensive sectors who,

despite the nature of their activity, are well positioned in their climate transition process. In this sense, considering only the

exposure to HTR customers who are not yet advanced in the transition, the indicator as a percentage of total wholesale decreases

from 8.78% in December 2024 to 8.45% in December 2025.

Assessing transition risk and customer decarbonization plans

Materiality assessments and risk quantification are complemented by evaluations of wholesale customers. These evaluations

consider key aspects related to transition risk, physical risk, and environmental risk. The results of these evaluations are factored

into credit decisions and form part of the customer’s rating.

| p.343 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Transition risk analysis is conducted across all sectors, with an advanced approach for customers in High Transition Risk (HTR)

sectors identified in the internal transition risk taxonomy. This analysis is supported by BBVA’s scoring system, known as the

Transition Risk Indicator (TRi). In this way, a transition risk score and an assessment of decarbonization plans are available for all

corporate banking customers, regardless of their sector.

The TRi evaluates customers’ exposure to transition risk based on their activities and geographies. Additionally, the credibility of

transition plans is assessed through:

–The level of ambition of emission reduction targets; and

–The level of implementation of these plans. The latter is measured by the maturity of governance structures, the

concreteness of the climate strategy regarding the technological levers defined to achieve the targets, and the actual

evolution of greenhouse gas emissions.

The TRi is an internal tool useful for business areas in segmenting customers within the sectoral alignment plans for portfolios that

form part of BBVA’s objectives. This allows the application of risk mitigation policies established in the Sector Frameworks. The

following shows the output of the transition scoring system, which is used to classify customers by their level of exposure to

transition risk and maturity in risk management:

(2) 2024 Data: Auto (94%); Cement (82%); Oil & Gas (81%); Autoparts (37%); Steel (73%); Power Generation (62%); and other sectors (37%).

The mortgage portfolio represents a significant portion of the Group's portfolio; therefore, specific tools, processes, and

methodologies have been developed to assess the climate risks associated with this portfolio. Regarding transition risk, BBVA has

adapted its onboarding and monitoring processes to increase the availability of data related to Energy Performance Certificates

(EPCs) for the portfolio. In Spain, work continues on collecting EPC data during the loan origination process. When the actual data

is unavailable at the time of origination, estimated EPC data is collected through appraisal companies. Additionally, the recurring

| p.344 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

capture of actual EPC data directly from the databases of the Autonomous Communities has begun. This aims to capture real data

on the collateral and identify any potential energy efficiency improvements in the properties after origination.

As a result of the above, progress has been made in increasing the coverage of EPC in the portfolio in Spain, reaching a coverage of

84.8% of the portfolio's EAD with actual or estimated data.

shape-ae42297559490465.gif

CHART 25. PORTFOLIO COVERAGE BY ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE RATING IN SPAIN (PERCENTAGE)

chart-037dd4ed84eb4702933.gif

Efforts to improve loan origination and data capture are reflected in the increased proportion of A-rated loans in 2025.

In Latin America, where official EPCs do not exist, several initiatives have been launched in conjunction with leading organizations

to estimate energy consumption data and EPCs for both existing and new loans.

Furthermore, BBVA has applied differentiated pricing to loans with sustainability features, such as the "Efficient Home Mortgage"

for homes with an A or B energy rating.

Calculation of financed CO2 emissions

BBVA measures scope 3, category 15 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for financing activities (corporate loans, project finance,

commercial real estate, mortgages, and motor vehicle loans) and for the portfolio of corporate bonds and listed and unlisted

equity. To carry out this measurement, BBVA has adopted the PCAF (Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials) methodology,

applying the financial control criteria identified in the GHG protocol. This calculation covers all portfolios included in the first edition

of the PCAF standard and the Group's significant geographical areas, providing a comprehensive view of financed emissions.

In line with the defined roadmap, since the end of 2024 the calculation of financed emissions includes all material geographies

within the Group: BBVA, S.A. (excluding the branch in Portugal), BBVA Mexico, BBVA Colombia, BBVA Peru, BBVA Argentina and

Garanti BBVA (the Garanti BBVA perimeter in Turkey and its subsidiaries Garanti Bank International and Garanti Bank Romania).

The estimate is expressed in terms of both absolute financed emissions and economic intensity (tons of CO2e per € million

financed). Additionally, the quality score defined in the PCAF methodology is presented, which assesses the availability and

reliability of the data used for the calculation. This score ranges from 1 to 5, with 5 being the worst score, assigned when sector

estimates using emission factors provided by PCAF are used, and 1 being the best score, assigned when customer-disclosed and

| p.345 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

verified reported emissions data are used. The version of the factors used is the latest one provided by PCAF, segmented by

Exiobase, in September 2024.

The following graph shows the BBVA Group's financed emissions by asset class and their distribution by geography:

Identification of customers excluded  from EU Paris-Aligned Benchmarks

The Paris Agreement is an agreement within the framework of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change

(COP) that establishes measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG).

In February 2019, the European Parliament and the Council reached an agreement on the creation of two new categories of low-

carbon benchmarks: the EU Climate Transition Benchmark (or EU CTB for short) and the Paris-Aligned Benchmark (or EU PAB for

short). While both benchmarks feature the same criteria focused on decarbonization, the thresholds are different.

In 2020, the European Commission established the minimum criteria that indices must meet to qualify as a EU Climate Transition

Benchmark (EU CTB) and EU Paris-Aligned Benchmark (EU PAB). For the Paris-Aligned Benchmark (EU PAB), Delegated

Regulation (EU) 2020/1818 sets out certain exclusions including quantitative criteria for the sectors of (i) exploration, mining,

extraction, distribution or refining of anthracite, hard coal and lignite; (ii) exploration, extraction, distribution or refining of liquid

fuels; (iii) exploration, extraction, production or distribution of gaseous fuels; (iv) generation of electricity with a given emissions

intensity. The aforementioned regulation contains qualitative criteria in relation to controversial weapons such as anti-personnel

mines, biological, chemical and nuclear weapons, cluster bombs, as well as depleted uranium weapons, blinding laser weapons,

incendiary weapons and/or undetectable fragments. However, as expressly instructed by the current Pillar 3 regulations issued by

the EBA and the European Commission, these qualitative aspects should not be taken into account.

The identification of customers excluded from the Paris Agreement-Aligned EU Benchmark is carried out using information

provided by an external ESG data provider of the Group. A relationship is established between the sectors or economic activities

described in the delegated regulation and an assessment is made as to whether or not the customer or business group meets the

relevant criteria. This cataloging is carried out in accordance with the methodology developed by the aforementioned provider,

which builds a logical relationship between the economic sectors or activities and the screening criteria by percentage of turnover

established by the delegated regulation in those sectors.

The categorization provided is also related to the NACE catalogue (4-digit). This interaction takes place through the link

established by EUROSTAT with NACE, making it possible to identify customers whose information is not available from the

provider. These cases are exceptional given that in the aforementioned sectors, such as Coal, Oil & Gas, and Power Generation,

there are customers of sufficient size and information on turnover by economic activity is available. For those activities that involve

more than one sub-activity, for example Oil & Gas at the same time, the most restrictive criterion will be considered.

Concentration of financed emissions

The BBVA Group has analyzed its exposures to the 20 most carbon-intensive companies in the world, which it uses as a

complement to the sectoral analysis (NACE codes) disclosed in other sections of this report. To analyze the exposure to these

companies, the financing granted to any of the companies belonging to their segment is considered.  The relationship between

corporate groups and companies belonging to them is based on the principles of supervisory reporting on large exposures

(COREP Large Exposures) and connected customers.

The information on the world’s top 20 carbon-intensive companies, according to the EBA’s ITS, should be based on accurate and

publicly available information. Examples of data sources used to identify these companies include the Carbon Majors database,

which contains reports from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and the Climate Accountability Institute, as well as Thomson

Reuters.

However, these reports use different criteria to determine the most polluting companies, since they are based on different

perimeters within the value chain for measuring greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, the results are not equivalent due to the

different perimeter of emissions considered by each of them.

BBVA has information from several data providers recognized in the sector with whom it collaborates to provide information on

climate aspects. This information is based on questionnaires sent to companies by the CDP, an organization that the EBA cites as

valid for determining a list of the most polluting companies.

Based on this information, a list of the most polluting companies has been drawn up, the emissions perimeter of which includes the

three scopes (1, 2, and 3 upstream) of their value chain. BBVA understands that this scope is the one that companies can directly

manage within their value chain, where they can carry out mitigation actions, accelerate their transition to productive processes or

improve energy efficiency.

Below is the Group’s exposure data for the 20 most carbon-intensive companies worldwide, showing that there are 9 customers

with a combined balance of €1,402 million, representing  0,24% of the exposure to non-financial companies and whose weighted

average maturity is 1.28 years.

Breakdown of residential mortgages

The EPC label is a classification of properties according to their energy efficiency. It must be calculated according to the

methodology adopted by Directive (EU) 2024/127 – Energy Performance of Buildings Directive – EPBD, published in April 2024

and pending transposition into national regulations.

The BBVA Group’s exposures secured by real estate, as well as those arising from foreclosure processes or received in payment of

debt, are distributed according to their geographic diversification. Because of this, there is a presence in countries outside the

scope of application of the aforementioned Directive. As a result, the standards for assessing the energy consumption intensity or

energy efficiency of real estate in each region have different levels of maturity, which adds complexity when trying to provide a

consistent view from a global perspective.

Most of the real estate assets relate to the business in Spain, where the EPC is the standard approach to assessing energy

efficiency. Under the applicable regulations in Spain, the assessment and issuance of an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is

mandatory for the sale of residential properties since 2013. Over recent years, BBVA, S.A. has implemented the necessary

changes to collect EPC information for new mortgage loans in Spain via appraisal companies. The Bank is finalizing periodic

access to the EPC databases maintained by the Autonomous Communities, which will allow, from 2026 onwards, updating EPC

data after origination. This will reflect any subsequent improvements in the energy efficiency of the property, thereby covering the

majority of the exposure. More precisely, the EPC information was obtained from existing public records and, in cases where the

information was not available, it was based on a model developed by the appraiser to estimate the intensity of energy consumption

based on the nearest neighborhood, geographic area, year of construction and floor of the building. This model has been analyzed

by BBVA’s Internal Validation team.

| p.351 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

It should be noted that due to the type of property in question, the issuance of EPC labels may not be mandatory, as is the case

with plots of land, storage rooms, or stand-alone garages, for which no information or estimated energy consumption (kWh/m2/

year) has been obtained.

For real estate assets attached to the banking business in Spain, information on estimated energy consumption (kWh/m2 per

year) has been incorporated whenever the EPC label information is available.  A project was launched to raise awareness among

BBVA customers of the value and worth of EPCs and to include them among the documentation to be requested when granting a

mortgage before penalizing risks. This should ultimately help to improve loan terms and conditions and decarbonize the total stock

of housing units, which in Europe accounts for 40% of CO2 emissions.

In addition, several initiatives have been launched in Spain to finance improvements in the energy efficiency of buildings, both for

individuals and communities of owners.

In Turkey, energy certificates have been obtained from appraisal documents for existing properties in the country since 2017.

Since January 2023, the mortgage contracting process has been modified to automatically collect label and consumption

information, which has been done for mortgage loan originations for 2023. For the existing stock, a tool is being developed to

estimate the energy efficiency level based on actual available EPCs.

In Mexico, there are two ongoing projects to obtain energy efficiency information. First, the mortgage loan underwriting process

has been modified to automatically collect information on new transactions and, second, proxies are being calculated to qualify

energy efficiency and emissions for both the existing stock and new originations. In both cases, the aim is to have information on

energy consumption (kWh/m2/year) and emissions (KgCO2/m2/year). In relation to collateral, BBVA has been calculating the

associated emissions and consumption estimates for existing stock and new loans since 2Q 2024, which has resulted in a

significant increase in the availability of energy performance data in non-EU geographies.

A similar initiative has already been implemented in Peru and Colombia, with the aim of managing the collection of emissions

metrics (KgCO2/m2/year) and, from this, being able to generate consumption metrics (kWh/m2/year) by applying the country’s

energy mix.

BBVA is actively working to identify key local factors to determine the degree of sustainability of the properties. Some of these

factors are associated with the water resources required or waste management, since the energy efficiency of buildings is of

different significance depending on the climate of the countries in which they operate.

Climate physical risk

Physical risks arise from climate change and can manifest both in the increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events

and in long-term alterations of climate patterns. These types of events can cause physical damage to company assets, disrupt

supply chains, or increase the expenses required to address them.

During 2025, BBVA updated its internal physical risk taxonomy, whose main objective is to identify the economic activities most

exposed to physical climate risks and the most relevant natural hazards in the main geographies where BBVA operates, as well as

to explain the transmission channels of physical risks to prudential financial risks.

In this way, it is identified that the most relevant natural hazards in the geographies where BBVA operates are tropical cyclones,

heatwaves, wildfires, riverine and coastal floods, and drought.

The physical risk analysis is based on sets of climate trajectories consistent with the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP)

developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in its Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). These scenarios

integrate consistent assumptions about the evolution of socioeconomic, energy, and demographic factors, and their translation

into greenhouse gas emission pathways.

BBVA uses two reference scenarios: SSP2-4.5 and SSP3-7.0. SSP2-4.5 is used as the baseline scenario for the analysis. This

scenario describes an intermediate pathway of continuation of current trends until mid-century, with a gradual energy transition

and subsequent decline without reaching net zero, leading to ~2.7 °C (2.1–3.5 °C) by the end of the century (AR6). This is useful as

a central point for impacts and adaptation.

Meanwhile, the SSP3-7.0 scenario reflects a world characterized by high geopolitical fragmentation, reduced international

cooperation, and limited climate policies, resulting in a scenario of high physical risk. Therefore, the IPCC classifies it as high

emissions and projects an average warming of ~3.6 °C (2.8–4.6 °C) by the end of the century (AR6). At these levels, the frequency

and intensity of heat waves, extreme rainfall, and droughts clearly increase, as do coastal risks. Meanwhile, the SSP5-8.5 scenario

is considered unlikely given current policies and is therefore reserved for stress tests.

Natural hazards

During 2025, the calculation methodology for both the retail and wholesale portfolios was maintained, considering the following

acute climate hazards (river and pluvial flooding, tropical cyclones, wildfires, heatwaves and cold waves) and chronic hazards (sea

level rise, drought).

Exposure

In 2025, work was carried out within the framework of the strategy for geospatial data on customers’ productive assets. In 2026,

efforts will continue, focusing on improving asset coverage at a global level.

Vulnerability

In 2026, the update of this vulnerability component will be addressed to provide greater granularity based on sub-sectors and to

include a larger number of hazards. Additionally, this component will be complemented with damage functions where scientifically

robust, and work will continue to increase the number of available damage functions for both direct and indirect transmission

channels of physical climate risk.

Next steps

During 2025, the BBVA Adapta project was launched to develop an internal tool for analyzing physical climate risk and natural

capital. This tool will provide a granular view of these risks and integrate them into various risk and business processes.

| p.354 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Despite these advances, the assessment of physical climate risks presents several limitations:

–Data: historical data are scarce and heterogeneous, with coverage gaps, low resolution, and lack of georeferencing.

–Scenarios and uncertainty: climate scenarios are based on assumptions (policies, technology, pathways) with structural

uncertainty. Additionally, damage functions and exposure inventories remain incomplete.

–Heterogeneous analysis (TCFD/ISSB/NGFS): the heterogeneity of risk analysis and reporting methodologies may

significantly affect comparability between entities. There is also a high dependence on low-resolution scenarios that do

not capture local realities.

Addressing these limitations requires collaborative work between public entities and private initiatives.

Based on the aforementioned physical risk analysis methodology and using data as of December 31, 2025, it was identified that

23% of the wholesale portfolio's exposure (23% in 2024) corresponds to activities with a high or very high level of exposure to this

risk. This calculation was performed on a portfolio totaling €291,540 million (253,795 in 2024).

In summary, internal taxonomies allow for the assessment of the exposure of key economic activities to climate and environmental

risks, including transition risks, physical risks, and natural capital risks.

(1) The breakdown includes the portfolios of Spain, Mexico, Turkey, Peru, Colombia and Argentina

During 2025, significant progress was made in the granular analysis of physical risk exposure for customers and operations.

Specifically, a physical risk score was developed for the CIB and corporate customer segments portfolio, which will identify

customers with the greatest exposure to physical and climate-related risks. This score was initially developed using a methodology

from an external provider; however, during 2026, an internal methodology developed within the BBVA Adapta project will be

implemented.

This scoring system will be available during the customer onboarding process, through the Client Sustainability Toolkit, and will be

complemented by a customer physical risk adaptation questionnaire. The combination of the physical risk exposure score and the

implemented adaptation measures will allow for an integrated assessment of each customer's exposure and resilience.

Furthermore, during 2025, a methodological approach was developed to conduct a tactical analysis of physical risk for project

finance and data center transactions, providing an initial approximation of the portfolio's risk exposure. During 2026, work will

continue on implementing this type of analysis in the onboarding process for project finance, data center, and hotel asset

transactions, as well as integrating this analysis into the BBVA Adapta project.

In terms of physical risk analysis in the mortgage portfolio, a metric (called High Physical Risk, hereinafter, HPR) has been

developed that allows for the quantification and monitoring of the exposure of mortgage portfolio assets to climate-related

physical risks with a forward-looking approach. This metric is part of the Monitoring Metrics of the Risk Appetite Framework.

Each mortgage asset is assigned a physical risk score based on the expected annual loss due to different climate hazards,

considering the SSP2-4.5 scenario and a time horizon up to 2040. Those assets with the worst score are included in the HPR

metric. The scope of application is the retail mortgage portfolio in the following geographies: Spain, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, and

Turkey.

Risk associated to natural capital

BBVA includes natural capital in its holistic vision of sustainability, which encompasses the geographies in which it operates. For

BBVA, opportunities in natural capital are linked to investments that mitigate risks, improve efficiency, and protect natural

resources in four key areas:

image20.jpg

Natural capital constitutes a functional foundation for economic stability and biosphere integrity. Aligned with ESRS requirements

and recognizing the financial sector's structural dependency on nature, the Group integrates this management into its

sustainability strategy as a growth engine that complements and reinforces climate action.

Policies and frameworks

The Sustainability General Policy expressly includes the protection of natural capital as one of its key areas of focus. Specifically,

BBVA recognizes the need to protect ecosystem services and natural assets, as well as species and natural ecological processes,

and considers biodiversity and natural capital in its relationships with customers.

Additionally, the Environmental and Social Framework specifically includes a number of general prohibited activities, in relation to

the loss of biodiversity and the fight against deforestation:

–Threats to protected areas: new projects that threaten: UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Ramsar-listed wetlands, Alliance

for Zero Extinction sites, and Category I-IV areas of the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

–Deforestation: new High Conservation Value and High Carbon Forest removal projects.

–Non-certified palm oil farms: new palm oil projects in swamps and peat-rich areas.

In addition to these general restrictions, specific prohibitions have been established for new projects in the agroindustrial sector

related to ecosystem protection: projects that involve the burning of natural ecosystems, the removal of forests with high

conservation value and high carbon content, as well as palm oil farms that are not certified by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm

Oil (RSPO) or are not in the process of certification. New palm oil projects in swamps and peat-rich areas are also excluded.

Risk management

Natural capital risks are those that arise from actions to protect natural capital (transition risks) and the loss of ecosystem

services that serve as inputs or enable economic activities (physical risks). They are a source of economic risks due to the

dependencies and impacts of economic activities on natural capital.

| p.358 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Customer activity and its value chain can affect natural capital (impacts), while the loss of natural capital can generate risks for

BBVA customers' operations and business model (dependencies).

–Customers whose activities or value chain have a high impact on ecosystems face a greater level of transition risk due to

regulatory and policy changes. The replacement of technologies with more efficient and less polluting ones, shifts in

consumer demand, and market changes.

–Customers with a high dependence on natural capital in their activities or value chain may face greater physical risks

stemming from ecosystem degradation, such as reduced water resources or the loss of protective capacity against

adverse weather events.

During 2025, BBVA updated its internal taxonomy of natural capital risks, integrating the analysis of impacts and dependencies

across the value chain. Furthermore, for the first time, a geographical perspective was considered to capture the relationship

between the Group's activities and nature in its main operating regions.

The methodology designed to identify points of interaction with nature and assess related impacts and dependencies is linked to

the initial steps of the TNFD's LEAP approach, recognizing that impacts and dependencies indicate both greater risks and

opportunities. This exercise primarily utilized the methodology of the ENCORE tool (Exploring Natural Capital Opportunities, Risks

and Exposure) developed by the Natural Capital Finance Alliance, which is also consistent with aspects of other reference tools

such as the SBTN Materiality Screening Tool, developed by the Science Based Target Network (SBTN).

The information provided by ENCORE allows, for the first time, an understanding of the impacts and dependencies on natural

capital, both upstream and downstream, of the value chain for each of BBVA’s 271 economic activities. This analysis enables an

understanding of the potential material dependencies and impacts of the bank own activities, as well as those of its suppliers and

customers. It also provides a clearer picture of exposure to nature-related risks that were previously hidden within its value chain.

Furthermore, the previous approach has been complemented with a geographical perspective to understand the interaction of

economic activities with nature in the different regions where its customers operate. Following TNFD recommendations, a

compilation of metrics has been carried out to provide geographical insights into the following aspects:

–Impact factors and external factors, such as regulations on water management, waste and pollution, and biodiversity and

land use.

–Changes in the state of nature and the availability of ecosystem services, through recognized external sources such as

Aqueduct, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and the United Nations Environment Programme

World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC). Key metrics considered include Baseline Water Stress (BWS) and

the Ecoregion Intactness Index (EII).

This analysis includes aspects related to water availability and quality, biodiversity, land use, as well as ecosystem pollution and

waste generation.

As a result, by combining the levels of impact and dependence, an exposure level (very high, high, medium, low) is assigned to

each sector and geography to natural capital risk. Activities considered sensitive to natural capital risk total €68,843 billion,

representing  23.6% of the wholesale portfolio. By country, those with the highest percentage exposure to natural capital risk are

Colombia, Peru, and Argentina, geographies where the primary exploitation and/or manufacturing of food, beverages, and

tobacco subsectors have a greater weight in the wholesale portfolio.

This prioritization of activities helps identify areas for improvement in risk management processes. First, natural capital risks have

been included in the risk assessment exercise that forms part of the General Risk Management and Control Model. As next steps,

work is underway to identify more specific metrics to evaluate customers' impact on and dependence on nature. These metrics will

provide insight into the current situation and customers' commitments in managing the risks and opportunities arising from

natural capital.

Exposure by sector to climate and environmental risks

BBVA has developed an internal taxonomy designed to assess the exposure of key economic activities to climate and

environmental transition, physical, and natural capital risks.

Definition of risk appetite and resilience of the strategy to climate risks

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) m), o), q)

BBVA’s climate change risk management is based on the risk planning process. This process is guided by the defined risk appetite

and is operationalized through management frameworks that determine how it is handled in day-to-day operations.

Integration of climate risks into the Risk Appetite Framework

Integration into the Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) forms the basis for the prudent management of climate risk. The defined

tolerances and thresholds are supported by the results of the Risk Assessment and the Group’s transition plans.

As part of the RAF formulation process, the review and calibration of the Risk Appetite Statement and its translation into metrics is

generally performed annually. In defining the appetite for portfolio positioning, based on the relative weight in BBVA’s portfolio

(the “Risk Portfolio View”), transition risk is used as an input for portfolios most exposed to regulatory, legal, technological,

market, and reputational risks arising from climate change. Additionally, the High Transition Risk (HTR) metric sets limits and a

“Room for Growth” in line with decarbonization and alignment objectives established in the business plans.

On this basis, the Board of Directors approves limits and thresholds for aggregated exposure to HTR activities, both at the Group

level and by geographic area, defining the maximum appetite for this type of risk. Additionally, from 2024, the RAF incorporates an

indicator to monitor the degree of compliance with sectoral decarbonization targets, strengthening the link between risk

management and alignment commitments.

Within the RAF structure, four levels of metrics are defined, integrating climate risk concentration indicators:

–At the By-type level, this includes: (i) the concentration metric for activities and customers potentially most vulnerable to

decarbonization, Net High Transition Risk (HTR), and (ii) a metric for portfolio and financed emissions alignment (Lending

Portfolio Decarbonization).

–At the Monitoring Metrics incorporates: (i) physical risk concentration in the mortgage portfolio through High Physical

Risk (HPR), (ii) exposure to customers potentially most vulnerable to decarbonization through High Market Misalignment

(HMM) — customers with emissions intensity >30% above the Net-Zero market scenario—, and (iii) the financed

emissions intensity metric for the wholesale portfolio (Intensity of financed emissions).

These metrics are defined both at the Group level and for each business area.

The RAF will evolve from 2026 as models are refined to more accurately reflect the effects of climate risks and more sophisticated

analytical capabilities are implemented.

Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) related to climate change, including the metrics included in the RAF, are integrated into internal risk

reports. Furthermore, during 2025, the internal risk metrics dashboard has been enhanced, allowing all BBVA teams to access

materially relevant information on risk identification, monitoring, exposure trends, and climate risk mitigation actions.

Definition of customer-level risk appetite

BBVA applies specific frameworks by sector and by product in which the risk appetite is defined according to customer type,

considering both the climate and environmental risk profile as well as decarbonization objectives. This allows the establishment of

criteria for portfolio management.

In the wholesale portfolio, elements of sustainability risk analysis and portfolio alignment have been integrated to drive the

achievement of strategic objectives, through:

| p.362 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

infografasig_202511.jpg

Compliance with the risk appetite defined in the Sectoral and Product Frameworks is also a condition that alignment plans for each

sector, with emission reduction objectives, must meet.

In the Retail Portfolio, integration of sustainability aspects, particularly related to decarbonization and physical risk, has continued

in the mortgage, small business, and auto loan operating frameworks. For Mortgages, origination limits have been defined in Spain

and Turkey by combining the EPC rating with the loan-to-value ratio (LTV). This begins to integrate transition risk into the risk

appetite definition for this portfolio. Another key factor influencing transition risk in these portfolios is the financed carbon

emissions associated with each loan. Thus, the calculation of financed emissions serves as a lever to identify portfolios most

sensitive to regulatory, technological, or energy/CO₂ price changes. As a risk mitigation lever, BBVA also acts as a facilitator of

financing for investments needed for climate change mitigation and adaptation, promoting more sustainable lifestyles and

products.

Assessment of business model resilience

BBVA understands climate resilience as the ability to adapt in order to manage both transition and physical risks, while

simultaneously capturing opportunities linked to decarbonization. In line with the option considered by the ESRS and following

TCFD recommendations, BBVA evaluates its strategy on two complementary levels: (i) an orderly transition scenario that allows

for opportunity capture, and (ii) scenarios with greater severity of climate risks, against which the robustness of the business

model is tested.

Climate scenarios are integrated into the Group’s scenario governance and incorporated into the ICAAP. For transition risk, the

Group includes an adverse “climate fragmentation” scenario as a structural element of the capital plan, using a top-down

approach that combines macroeconomic projections and sectoral impacts, based on NGFS scenarios, and includes potential asset

valuation shocks associated with the transition (e.g. corrections in green assets). For physical risk, a economic capital add-on is

estimated for droughts in the main geographies of the footprint (Spain, Mexico, and Turkey), with calibrations based on climate

indicators and forward-looking multipliers, to capture potential deterioration under adverse conditions.

| p.363 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Additionally, exercises assessing the impact of climate risks on provisioning and economic capital calculations progress along two

complementary levers:

–Top-down (transition risks): Disaggregation of the NGFS scenarios by sector to calibrate pathways for Probability of

Default (PD) and the impact on provisions for stage 2 customers, as well as a transfer of exposures from stage 1 to stage

2.

–Bottom-up (physical risks): Assessment of potential collateral value deterioration—real estate assets in corporate and

retail portfolios—with translation into Loss Given Default (LGD).

The results of this calculation show that the impacts continue to be immaterial for both transition and physical risks. However, it is

important to consider that methodological limitations, particularly in terms of data and scenario design, may be underestimating

expected losses for the financial system. In this context, BBVA has implemented scenario analysis capabilities to develop bottom-

up analytical methodologies and models to project customers’ financial statements and estimate impacts on collateral values

under different climate scenarios and across various time horizons. Using these capabilities, the Group will continue refining the

models to more accurately reflect the effects of climate risks as information and data evolve, applying a bottom-up scenario

analysis approach.

Furthermore, a stress test exercise has been carried out to assess the robustness and resilience of the business strategy in the

event of a potential strategic exit of relationships with certain customers, assuming that they do not meet the milestones set in the

developed engagement plans. Customers in this situation are closely monitored, and improvements are expected in the short to

medium term. The outcome of this exercise under the most adverse scenario (considering a complete exit of these customers)

highlights the strength of the business strategy.

Finally, the resilience of the strategy under different climate scenarios is reinforced by the fact that BBVA has established

sustainability as one of its six strategic priorities, with a particular focus on combating climate change, integrating into this priority

the goal of aligning its financing portfolio with Paris Agreement-compatible scenarios. Notable intermediate targets for 2030

include CO₂ emission reductions in the Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Auto, Steel, Cement, Coal, Aviation, and Shipping sectors, as

well as Aluminum and Real Estate (commercial and residential), alongside an eco-efficiency plan to reduce its operational

footprint.

Sustainability data strategy

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) p)

During 2025, the rollout of the sustainability data strategy continued, reviewing new data needs and providing business units with

capabilities to leverage existing information in order to optimize decision-making. The ESG Data Strategy is aligned with the BBVA

Group’s Data Governance framework, fostering the integrity and quality of the information made available to users.

Collecting ESG data from customers remains a strategic priority within BBVA's ESG Data Strategy. To this end, initiatives have

been launched to explore and integrate new information providers, develop AI-based capabilities for processing unstructured data

sources, and obtain data directly from corporate customers. These actions strengthen the Group's capacity to promote

sustainable business growth and mitigate ESG risks.

One of the key pillars in the capture of customers ESG data has been the geolocation of their productive assets. In this regard,

during 2025 work was carried out on their collection, availability and integration into BBVA’s systems. This new solution model will

make it possible to optimize the measurement of physical risk for BBVA and to develop new personalized advisory capabilities for

customers.

In line with the priorities established in the Group's sustainability strategy, new datasets have been made available this year to

meet the demands of business areas regarding natural capital management. This information will enable BBVA to promote the

development of initiatives related to natural capital and improve the accuracy of nature-related risk measurements.

| p.364 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Additionally, the BBVA Group continuously works to make available KPIs and metrics of strategic relevance for business

development. This data, which reflects the environmental, social, and governance performance of its customers and operations, is

a fundamental asset for identifying business opportunities aligned with sustainability principles.

Finally, BBVA continues to make progress in collecting data on the energy efficiency of real estate assets, especially in regions

where there is no legislative framework comparable to that of the European Union in this area. In these regions, projects have been

developed to estimate energy consumption and financed emissions with the greatest possible accuracy, allowing their integration

into risk management processes. As a result, data for Colombia was reported for the first time in 2025.

Methodologies and standards and considered in the climate and environmental risk

management framework

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (1) k)

BBVA addresses the management and analysis of climate and environmental risks through a comprehensive approach that

combines alignment with international and market standards, best practices and specific methodologies identified in different

international frameworks, as well as with current regulations on the matter and supervisory expectations.

On the regulatory front, BBVA considers various regulations in force in this area, including the EU Taxonomy Regulation

2020/852, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and

Spanish Law 7/2021 on climate change, among others. This approach is complemented by supervisory guidelines, including the

ECB’s expectations on climate and environmental risks, the EBA Guidelines on ESG risks, as well as international best practices

related to climate stress testing, among others.

BBVA relies on sector initiatives following the recommendations of the UN Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP-FI),

together with sustainable finance principles and standards established by the International Capital Markets Association (ICMA)

and the Loan Market Association (LMA).

Likewise, to analyze financed emissions and align its portfolio with climate objectives, it uses methodologies such as PCAF and

PACTA, in addition to reinforcing its commitment to the transition towards a low-carbon economy through its participation in the

Net Zero Banking Alliance.

As indicated in section 7.2.2. on environmental risk management, in relation to physical risks, the physical risk analysis is based on

climate trajectory sets consistent with the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on

Climate Change (IPCC) in its Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).

Similarly, as detailed above in section 7.2.2. on environmental risk management, in the information relating to risks associated with

natural capital, BBVA predominantly uses the methodology of the ENCORE tool developed by the Natural Capital Finance Alliance,

which is also consistent with aspects contained in other reference tools such as the SBTN Materiality Screening Tool, developed by

the Science Based Target Network (SBTN).

Finally, as part of its project management, BBVA applies the Equator Principles (EP), which require adequate assessment and

mitigation of biodiversity risks in the projects it finances under the EP. It is worth noting that for projects with impacts on critical

habitats, BBVA, as part of implementing the EP, requires the implementation of biodiversity management plans aligned with the

IFC (International Finance Corporation) Performance Standards, which require the identification and quantification of impacts on

biodiversity, critical habitats, and natural resources.

7.3.Social risk

7.3.1. Strategy and business processes

Integration of social factors into business strategy

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (2) a)

As mentioned in section 7.2.1. on environmental risk business strategy and processes, BBVA addresses sustainability with a

holistic vision that includes not only combating climate change and preserving natural capital, but also contributing to the progress

and development of the societies in which it operates.

Beyond the positive impact generated by its banking activities—the main driver to contribute to the progress and development of

the societies in which it operates—, BBVA complements this effect through robust social and philanthropic activity. This activity is

channeled through social programs developed by the Group and its foundations, as well as through contributions to non-profit

organizations and the promotion of a corporate culture committed to social and environmental support, facilitating employee

participation in volunteer initiatives.

Overall, these activities with a positive impact on society are consistent with BBVA's Purpose and strategic priorities, driving

growth that empowers individuals and societies to  go further.

Finally, in line with its decarbonization strategy and the principles of its Sustainability General Policy, BBVA works on progressively

integrating ESG risks and opportunities into internal processes, supporting customers in their transitions and monitor direct and

indirect environmental and social impacts. In this regard, BBVA integrates these principles into its operations, also covering the

processes for assessing and managing the impact and risk of its financing operations. In addition to defining sectoral alignment

plans and assessing customers transition plans, the Group measures the environmental and social impact, applying proportional

processes tailored to the type of customer and the nature of the transaction.

Objectives and goals set towards inclusive growth

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (2) b)

Evolution of sustainable business channeling in the social sphere

The progress achieved in the social sphere in 2025 - within the objective set by BBVA to mobilize 700 billion in sustainable

activities for the period 2025-2029 - has been very significant. This year, BBVA reached a record figure of €134 billion channeled,

of which €30 billion was allocated to social activities, representing a 52% growth compared to 2024.

31 The 2024 data differ from those presented in the previous report, as the estimates included at the close of the 2024 financial year have been replaced by the actual

data filed after the publication of that report.

image48.jpg

Contribution through social programs and initiatives

In the area of philanthropic contributions to the development in of the societies where the Group operates, BBVA established the

2025 Community Investment Goal, allocating €550 million to social initiatives to benefit 100 million people between 2021 and

  1. Both targets were met ahead of schedule, on December 31, 2024, with €590.2 million31 allocated to social programs and

nearly 106 million people reached.

At the conclusion of the plan and following a thorough strategic review, BBVA has determined that the current philanthropic

framework is robust and remains fully aligned with the Group's long-term commitment to promoting the development of the

society. For this reason, it was not deemed necessary to launch a new Community Investment Plan.

In 2025, the BBVA Group allocated €191.5 million to the development of social programs and initiatives (€178 million in 2024),

representing 1.8% of its attributable profit. The programs and initiatives implemented directly benefited 7.7 million people.

In this regard. BBVA implements this contribution through its local banks and foundations, highlighting: (i) the BBVA Foundation,

focuses its activity on generating knowledge, (ii) the BBVA Mexico Foundation, focuses its activities on education with its

| p.367 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

benchmark program, "Chavos que Inspiran", which offers 10 years of support that transforms the lives of talented, underprivileged

young people across the country and (iii) the BBVA Microfinance Foundation, focuses its activities on supporting vulnerable

microentrepreneurs in Colombia, Chile, Panama, Peru, and the Dominican Republic through financial products and services such

as microloans, microinsurance, and financial and digital education workshops, among others.

Limits and procedures to assessing and addressing social risk

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (2) b), c)

Along with the integration of transition and physical risks into the Group's risk management processes and credit decision-making,

BBVA has a set of additional processes that allow it to identify and manage other environmental and social risks and impacts

associated with its customers financing activity.

image43.jpg

Its application allows the scope of the analysis to be broadened beyond climate-related issues, ensuring a comprehensive

assessment tailored to the customer type and the nature of the project. Thus, the depth of the analysis depends on the magnitude,

complexity, and potential impact of each case: larger-scale projects or customers require more exhaustive assessments, while

those with limited risks are analyzed using simplified procedures.

As previously mentioned in section 7.1.3. on governance model, the main procedures that the Group has which support

environmental and social assessment are:

–The Environmental and Social Framework establishes the criteria for identifying, assessing, and monitoring certain

activities in sectors selected for their environmental and social impact (mining, agribusiness, energy, infrastructure and

defense) and guides commercial decision-making and risk acceptance for these sectors.

–ESG controversy management it allows for the early identification of potential controversies, the review of existing

processes that act as preventive mechanisms, and the establishment of a common methodology for their management

and resolution for all customers in the CIB and Enterprise segments.

–The management of environmental and social risks in projects through the application of the EP4.

–The Know Your Customer process, through which customers economic activities are verified and documented using a

risk-based approach, enabling a better understanding of customers, their operations, product segmentation, channels,

needs, and transaction traceability.

To this end, BBVA collects ESG information from both its customers and external sources, allowing for proper monitoring of the

environmental and social risks and impacts associated with its activity. The conclusions of this analysis are incorporated, along

with the assessment of physical and transition risks, into the processes of customer and transaction admission and review.

For more details, see the section 7.3.2. on social risk management.

7.3.2. Risk management

Methodologies and international standards on which the social risk management framework

is based

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (2) h)

BBVA is inspired by international industry principles and standards when designing its social risk management framework. In this

regard, as set out in its Sustainability General Policy, BBVA ensures compliance with all applicable laws and respect for

internationally recognized human rights in all its relations with employees, customers, shareholders, suppliers and, in general, with

the communities in which it conducts its business and activities.

In addition, in matters relating to social risk, BBVA relies on a set of declarations, conventions and initiatives such as the

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Conventions of the International Labor Organization (ILO), the Principles for Responsible

Banking promoted by the United Nations Environment – Finance Initiative (UNEP-FI), the United Nations Global Compact, the

Women´s Empowerment Principles (WEPs),  among others.

Integration of social factors into the risk framework: management, commitments, setting

limits, tools and relationship with other risks

Article 449 bis CRR - Table (2) i), j) k), l), m)

BBVA is systematically incorporating its relationship with social factors—customers, employees, suppliers, and society—as a

potential risk vector within its overall non-financial risk management framework. This ensures their systematic consideration in the

processes of identification, assessment, control, and monitoring, thereby integrating due diligence into the Group's management

model. This process consolidates the objectives established and processes implemented in previous years to identify and address

potential negative impacts on its stakeholders, in accordance with the implementation of the Human Rights Action Plan 2021-22 &

2023.

In this regard, BBVA manages social risks taking into account the different customer segments, as shown below:

Social risks in CIB and corporate customer segments

As previously mentioned in sections 7.1.3. on governance model and 7.3.1. on strategy and business processes within social risk,

BBVA evaluates and manages social risks from the perspective of customers in the CIB and Business segments through various

procedures, such as:

Environmental and Social Framework

BBVA has an Environmental and Social Framework applicable to customers in the CIB segment and, since December 2024, also to

customers in the business segment, in accordance with materiality thresholds defined by geography based on their capital base,

associated risks, leverage level, and credit rating.

The Framework focuses on critical risks common to all sectors (such as the impact on critical habitats and cultural and

environmental heritage) and social aspects (such as human rights abuses and respect for indigenous and local communities

through the requirement of free, prior, and informed consent). Additionally, it assesses risks in specific sectoral risks are assessed,

such as the impact on natural capital (particularly in the oil palm supply chain in agribusiness or the clearing of high-value forests).

The implementation of the Framework is based on the analysis carried out by the ESG risk teams using internal Group information

or external information provided by independent expert advisors. This analysis assesses whether customers engage in activities

prohibited for the sectors covered by the Framework. If customers are involved in an activity subject to special attention, BBVA

32 Procedure approved in 2023.

| p.369 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

assesses the environmental and social impacts of the activity to be financed and may initiate engagement and support with the

customer under the terms set out in the Framework. During fiscal year 2025, 257 companies, both existing and new customers,

were assessed.

If there is sufficient evidence that a new customer or new project subject to the Framework engages in any of the following

“prohibited activities”, said new customer or new project will not be financed. If the following are found to exist: (i) customers

subject to EU, US or UN financial sanctions; and/or (ii) customers for whom BBVA has sufficient evidence that they are employing

child or forced labor, or participating in human trafficking, as defined in the ILO Conventions. In the event that any of the previous

activities are detected in existing customers, BBVA will activate customer relationship management proposals that could even

involve discontinuing their financing.

In accordance with established governance, this Framework is reviewed and updated annually to ensure its alignment with market

dynamics, emerging trends, evolving stakeholder expectations, and regulatory changes in the countries where BBVA operates.

Furthermore, it is subject to periodic internal audits and controls.

ESG controversy management

As part of its commitment to responsible environmental and social risk management, in 2024 BBVA implemented a specific

procedure for managing environmental and social controversies applicable to customers in the CIB and Enterprise segments.

This procedure allows for the early identification of potential controversies, a review of existing processes that act as preventative

mechanisms, and the establishment of a common methodology for their management and resolution. Its application is based on

the availability of external data, primarily provided by an external supplier, and is complemented by internal analysis of company

information.

The results of this analysis are subsequently integrated into each customer's financial program, allowing the business relationship

to be adjusted according to the level of risk identified32.

Equator Principles (hereinafter, EP4)

BBVA implements environmental and social risk assessment processes with the aim of mitigating and preventing negative

impacts, thereby enhancing the economic, social, and environmental value of project financing in sectors such as energy,

transportation, and social services.

The environmental and social management of transactions subject to EP4 is carried out through consistent end-to-end processes

applied from origination to portfolio monitoring. These processes are reviewed annually and may be subject to audits or internal

reviews.

Upon completion of the initial processes, each transaction is assigned to a risk category (A, B, or C). This categorization

determines the depth of environmental and social due diligence (ESD), the need for an independent review (mandatory for

Category A projects and, where applicable, for Category B projects), as well as the content of the covenants and action plans once

integrated into the portfolio.

In this regard, BBVA assesses the following due diligence areas under the EP4:

–Environmental and social assessment and disclosure: BBVA conducts a proportionate assessment that combines internal

and external analysis, a review of the project's environmental and social documentation, and an analysis of relevant public

information. Additionally, the level of stakeholder engagement and consultation is reviewed, as well as the existence of

accessible grievance mechanisms for potentially affected communities. The results of this assessment are integrated into

the loan approval process and the negotiation of contractual clauses.

| p.370 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

–Application of international technical standards: following EP4, BBVA assesses compliance with the IFC Performance

Standards and the World Bank's Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) Guidelines in non-designated countries. In

designated countries, local regulations are used as a reference, supplemented by the IFC Performance Standards when

there is a high risk or regulatory gaps. This analysis determines whether the project complies with international best

practices and whether additional action plans are required.

–BBVA applies explicit due diligence expectations regarding human rights and free, prior, and informed consent. Projects

with potential impacts on indigenous peoples are subject to enhanced due diligence and may require additional external

validations.

–In line with the EP4 requirements and the Group's climate strategy, BBVA assesses exposure to both physical and

transition risks. For high-emission projects, a more in-depth assessment is required, aligned, among other things, with the

EP4 requirements.

Data on financed operations that were analyzed under the EP4 during fiscal years 2025 and 2024 are detailed below:

transactions were signed in 2025 (62 in 2024), and 54 transactions were rejected for business-related reasons and for risk

concerns (8 transactions were rejected in 2024). Of the transactions signed in 2025, 53% are in the Power Generation sector, 35%

are in the infrastructure sector, and 12% are in other sectors. By geographic area, 52% are in the Americas and and the rest belong

to Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

KYC (Know your customer)

The KYC processes applied in the business segment collect basic information for customer analysis through questionnaires,

focused on CO₂ emissions and decarbonization plans. As in the corporate segment, this information is also considered in the risk

policy decision-making process with the customer.

BBVA has specialized ESG risk assessment teams, located in each of the geographic areas where it operates and within each

business area, to support this decentralized analysis conducted by risk analysts. The results of this analysis can influence risk

decisions, specifically the management policy and risk appetite with customers, as defined by the Risk Committees and outlined in

the wholesale Sector Frameworks, the Environmental and Social Framework, and the Alignment Plans.

Social risks in retail customers

BBVA also evaluates and manages social risks from the perspective of retail customers. To do so, it identifies, verifies, and

documents the economic activity of retail customers through risk-based KYC processes, which enables a better understanding of

customers, their operations, product segmentation, channels, needs, and transaction traceability.

Additionally, the General Retail Credit Risk Policy establishes for equality and diversity as one of the general principles governing

retail credit risk management within the BBVA Group. This helps ensure that access to financial products is free from unfair bias

based on factors such as gender, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, sexual orientation, or political opinion.

| p.372 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

Finally, the General Model Risk Management Policy establishes that, in order to prevent unfair bias in access to financial products

based on factors such as gender, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, sexual orientation, or political opinion, none of these variables

are included in admission or pricing models.

Integration of social risks into the reputational sphere

Within the framework of social risk management, BBVA places significant emphasis on reputational risk management through its

taxonomy of reputational risks, which can arise from environmental, social and governance aspects.

In this sense, reputational risk associated with ESG aspects arises when stakeholders' expectations regarding the Group’s

management of these areas are not met, which can generate a negative perception. According to the internal classification, this

risk can occur for different reasons. among others:

–The development and publication of internal sustainability regulations that are not aligned with stakeholder expectations.

–The signing of public sustainability commitments that cannot subsequently be fulfilled.

–Inadequate setting, management, and/or control of committed decarbonization objectives.

–Onboarding and financing customers (companies) that are socially or environmentally questionable.

–Considering or labeling something as sustainable when it is not.

–Irresponsible communication regarding sustainability.

–Publishing environmental reporting that is inaccurate or could be considered misleading.

BBVA carries out an annual reputational risk assessment and continuously evaluates, through different admission processes, the

reputational risks of new initiatives.As part of this process, BBVA analyzes its customer social controversies using different tools

and methodologies, as these may in turn impact the Group’s reputation. All of this allows BBVA to propose actions to prevent and/

or mitigate environmental, social, or governance risks with potential reputational impact.

7.4.Governance risk

Making counterparty governance performance part of governance risk

Article 449 bis CRR – Table (3) a), b), c)

According to the regulations applicable to this report, governance risks related to counterparties include various types of disputes

they may face, highlighting the following, although this is not an exhaustive list:

i.Ethical considerations, such as integrity of conduct, values and ethics, anti-bribery and anti-corruption measures,

accountability and compliance with the rule of law and regulatory framework.

ii.Assessment of the strategy and risk management through strategy implementation, operational execution and

monitoring, internal controls and risk management policies and procedures.

iii.Factoring in diversity and inclusion, by looking at the gender gap, pay gap, and representation of people from minority

groups in management positions.

iv.Efforts to become more transparent in reporting information on discrimination, tax commitments and payments, and in

disclosing lobbying activities.

v.In relation to the management of conflicts of interest: any conflicts that affect the governing bodies.

| p.373 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

vi.Internal communication on critical concerns, such as insufficient communication of critical internal issues and difficulties

in escalating to the highest governance bodies.

BBVA integrates counterparty corporate governance practices into decision-making processes, and assesses operational

performance standards, the existence of robust internal controls, and the oversight structure of independent processes and

policies, including processes to ensure the quality of financial and non-financial reporting.

As discussed in section 7.3.2. on social risk management, BBVA uses the KYC process to assess sustainability governance

practices during the customer review and onboarding process. This includes the existence of sustainability oversight at the Board

of Directors level and the integration of sustainability objectives into management compensation. In this context, the evaluation of

governance aspects is based on the manager's experience, knowledge of the sector, and understanding of potential customers

and their needs.

The various frameworks considered when analyzing governance risk include the following statements, conventions and initiatives:

–United Nations Global Compact.

–OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.

–Principles for Responsible Investment of United Nations (UN PRI).

–Responsible Banking Principles promoted by United Nations Environment – Finance Initiative (UNEP-FI).

7.4.1. Risk management

BBVA builds governance aspects into its risk management framework. To do so, it analyses the corporate governance

performance of its customers and considers their management and governance practices in the risk underwriting process.

Integration of corporate governance practices into risk management processes

Article 449 bis CRR – Table (3) d)

The identification, assessment and monitoring of the risks of customers and their operations are integrated into BBVA’s standard

risk, compliance and operations processes and tools. Decisions are based on internal information or, where appropriate, on

information provided by independent external analysts.

As detailed in section 7.2.2. on environmental risk management, BBVA, with its risk taxonomy, constitutes an inventory of all the

risks to which it is or may be exposed as a result of the development of its business activity and strategy and, therefore, adapts to

its risk profile. In this sense, governance risks are treated as level 2 risks that can be translated into prudential risk categories

(credit, real estate, market, liquidity and funding, business strategy, operational, reputational). Additionally, reputational risks in

this standard also include negative perception due to association with third-party companies.

The management and governance analysis serves as an input when calculating the credit rating and addresses the following

factors: strategic positioning; financial and risk management; operational efficiency; and governance practices, including the

management of environmental and social factors.

In this case, it is a rating modifier that should be considered negative if the counterparty does not provide basic information related

to governance. The following specific factors and subfactors are considered:

–Strategic positioning and consistency of strategy with organizational capabilities and market trends, strategic planning

process, ability to monitor, adjust and control strategy execution.

–Financial and risk management in terms of risk management and risk tolerance standards.

| p.374 | | --- || Pillar 3  |  2025 | >  7. Prudential disclosures on environmental,<br><br>social and governance risks | | --- | --- |

–Financial and risk management as it relates to operational performance standards and enterprise-wide risk management

standards and tolerances.

–Management’s operational effectiveness, knowledge and experience, and depth and breadth.

–Governance and reporting practices, including financial and non-financial reporting assurance practices.

These factors are in line with the definitions of the EBA governance factors set out in the draft guidelines on the management of

ESG risks. Similarly, another of the aspects looked at when reviewing customers is the integration of climate change into

customers governance and decision-making processes.

During the annual customer review process, the existence of an internal committee to review and monitor sustainability and

climate management as well as the integration of sustainability objectives in the remuneration of the management team and the

management committee.

The Group considers the corporate governance performance of its CIB and enterprise segment customers, analyzing their

compliance with management practices through ESG dispute analysis, which has been previously developed in section 7.3.2. on

social risk management, along with the rest of the internal risk management indicators that feed the risk appetite with each

customer.

In this regard, BBVA analyzes in terms of governance risk, the controversies related to (i) ethics, (ii) transparency: participation in

lobbying activities and standards and practices; and iii) management of conflicts of interest.

(*) Accounting portfolios: "At amortised cost", "Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)", "Fair Value Through P&L" and "Non-tradable at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss". Instruments: loans and advances, fixed income and equities. Sectors: non-financial<br><br>corporations. Special features: main activity code information (NACE) used for internal management and reporting. The figures may vary slightly from the calculations made on the PACTA portfolio alignment, because this methodology takes into account the committed<br><br>available, while the figures shown in the table above correspond to transactions with gross book balance. The information includes the BBVA Group total prudential balance. In terms of breakdown of environmental objectives, the most significant entities are included and<br><br>correspond to 96% of the total assets. The data included in the template represents the best information available as of the date of publication of the report.
(**) The base year for all sectors is 2022. Reduction targets to 2030 have been defined for the following sectors: 52% in Electricity, 46% in Automotive, 23% in Steel, 17% in Cement, all with base year 2020; 30% in Oil & Gas with base year 2021; 18% in Aviation with base year<br><br>2022. In Maritime Transport, the alignment delta is calculated by reference to the annual trajectory set by the IMO. BBVA aims to eliminate its exposure to coal customers by 2030 in developed countries and by 2040 globally.

(***) BBVA sets portfolio alignment targets for 2030 in line with industry practices and draws up a Net Zero scenario year by year. One of the EBA's requests is to draw up short-term targets (3 years), and there is a path to Net Zero but it is not an objective officially<br><br>communicated by the Group.
(****) Carbon exposure includes financing provided and committed credit limits.

This document is provided for informative purposes only and is not intended to provide financial advice and, therefore, does not constitute, nor

should it be interpreted as, an offer to sell, exchange or acquire, or an invitation for offers to acquire securities issued by any of the aforementioned

companies, or to contract any financial product. Any decision to purchase or invest in securities or contract any financial product must be made

solely and exclusively on the basis of the information made available to such effects by the relevant company in relation to each such specific

matter. The information contained in this document is subject to and should be read in conjunction with all other publicly available information of

the issuer.

This document contains forward-looking statements that constitute or may constitute “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the

“safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) with respect to intentions, objectives, expectations

or estimates as of the date hereof, including those relating to future targets of both a financial and non-financial nature (such as environmental,

social or governance (“ESG”) performance targets).

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the fact that they do not refer to historical or current facts and include words such as “believe”,

“expect”, “estimate”, “project”, “anticipate”, “duty”, “intend”, “likelihood”, “risk”, “VaR”, “purpose”, “commitment”, “goal”, “target” and similar

expressions or variations of those expressions. They include, for example, statements regarding future growth rates or the achievement of future

targets, including those relating to ESG performance.

The information contained in this document reflects our current expectations, estimates and targets, which are based on various assumptions,

judgments and projections, including non-financial considerations such as those related to sustainability, which may differ from and not be

comparable to those used by other companies. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results, and actual results may differ

materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks, uncertainties and other factors. These factors

include, but are not limited to, (1) market conditions, macroeconomic factors, domestic and international stock market conditions, exchange rates,

inflation and interest rates; (2) regulatory, oversight, political, governmental, social and demographic factors; (3) changes in the financial condition,

creditworthiness or solvency of our clients, debtors or counterparties, such as changes in default rates, as well as changes in consumer spending,

savings and investment behavior, and changes in our credit ratings; (4) competitive pressures and actions we take in response thereto; (5)

performance of our IT, operations and control systems and our ability to adapt to technological changes; (6) climate change and the occurrence of

natural or man-made disasters, such as an outbreak or escalation of hostilities; (7) our ability to appropriately address any ESG expectations or

obligations (related to our business, management, corporate governance, disclosure or otherwise), and the cost thereof; and (8) our ability to

successfully complete and integrate acquisitions. In the particular case of certain targets related to our ESG performance, such as,

decarbonization targets or alignment of our portfolios, the achievement and progress towards such targets will depend to a large extent on the

actions of third parties, such as clients, governments and other stakeholders, and may therefore be materially affected by such actions, or lack

thereof, as well as by other exogenous factors that do not depend on BBVA (including, but not limited to, new technological developments,

regulatory developments, military conflicts, the evolution of climate and energy crises, etc.). Therefore, these targets may be subject to future

revisions.

The factors mentioned in the preceding paragraphs could cause actual future results to differ substantially from those set forth in the forecasts,

intentions, objectives, targets or other forward-looking statements included in this document or in other past or future documents. Accordingly,

results, including those related to ESG performance targets, among others, may differ materially from the statements contained in the forward-

looking statements.

Recipients of this document are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

Past performance or growth rates are not indicative of future performance, results or share price (including earnings per share). Nothing in this

document should be construed as a forecast of results or future earnings.

BBVA does not intend, and undertakes no obligation, to update or revise the contents of this or any other document if there are any changes in the

information contained therein, or including the forward-looking statements contained in any such document, as a result of events or circumstances

after the date of such document or otherwise except as required by applicable law.
